Prying Eye Productions Presents THE INQUISITION OF THE BIG BAD WOLF
Adelaide expats and directors' of Prying Eye, Lizzie and Zaimon Vilmanis, are returning to Adelaide in 2018 with their resonating new work, The Inquisition of the Big Bad Wolf. Hot off the tail of its February premiere at Supercell (Australia's startling new contemporary dance festival in Brisbane), 'WOLF' will be brought to life for Adelaide Fringe Festival from February 21 to March 4 at Tandanya Theatre. For those searching for the next big thing, a work that you can't forget for all the right reasons, this is it!
The show makes the often-uncomfortable topic of mental health approachable. Today's society imposes expectations that lead to great anxiety; Prying Eye illuminate this issue and ask, how far we are willing to go to keep up appearances even when things around us are falling apart? What are we afraid of when it's not going according to plan? How do we manage our fears and insecurities? What might happen if we unleash our emotions and set ourselves free from expectation for one brief moment?
In The Inquisition of the Big Bad Wolf well-known wolf tales get re-imagined within today's world. A bare performance space, a microphone, crazy costumes and plenty of ridiculousness converge in a glorious ode to chaos and control. 'Normal' gets flipped upside down as anxiousness hovers in the air like a relentlessly buzzing mosquito until the untamed inner wolf gets unleashed.
Lizzie Vilmanis says, 'The creativity and humour used within the show moves, amuses and agitates audiences so much that they can't resist joining in the ecstasy of 'roaring and hoofing and horning.'
The subject matter is treated with respect and integrity, through expert consultation made possible through partnership with the Queensland Alliance for Mental Health. For those who are not traditional fans of contemporary dance, this independent company has a knack for altering such perceptions with their works of impact. Vivid audience testimonies were received in response to Prying Eye's last work, White Porcelain Doll.
