Furry Tales

Furry Tales is a one-act stage musical about the furry fandom written by Bill Medica and James C. Carter. It was inspired by Anthrocon 2006. Synopsis BlueWolf22 is a troll working for internet shock magazine "everythingawful.com" — a reference to comedy website Something Awful, which frequently mocks furry fandom. The site charges him to go undercover and expose the supposed sordid, sexual side of the fandom at a furry convention, ConFurence. However, BlueWolf22 meets up with some friends; Gorillanator, a shy, parents'-basement-dwelling dork who got picked on in school, HuggyBunny the lonely poor little rich girl, and MisoKitty the rabble-rousing idealist. While the show was, in general, well received, some were critical of the stereotypical characters portrayed. Carter defended this by saying it necessary for a work intended to be presented to a non-furry crowd. He invited the musical's creators to attend Anthrocon 2007 and refine their work.
