Dogs: Play with your food
In this world the culinary arts are off limits.
To be a connoisseur, a chef, or even a simple foodie, is to harbour a sick fascination with desire and appetite.
Food is taboo.
The DOGS gather in secret, hiding their dark deeds under silver domes, searching for ways to make the rest of their lives as delicious as the time they spend together.
How do they find expression for the ecstasies they are forced to keep private?
DOGS is a show about the conversation we’re not keen on having; a playfully surreal performance exploring the difficulty around talking about sex.
Devised by a team of young practitioners, including current students and recent graduates of both Toi Whakaari and Victoria University, it is an experiment in contemporary clowning, seeking to open up this conversation through play, laughter, and food.
DOGS is directed by Calvin Petersen and features Angela Fouhy, Drew Brown, Frankie Berge, Merlin Nawalowalo, and Samuel Austin.
