HYENA SUBPOENA by Cat Kidd: Six Wild Animal Tales Set to Soundscapes
Catherine Kidd is a force of nature. Transcendent and funky, her hybrid creations explore animal societies to frame deeply personal human stories, wowing theatre and poetry audiences alike.
Since bursting onto the scene in Montreal's legendary underground cabarets of the early '90s, Kidd has toured her works to poetry, music and theatre festivals from Harbourfront World Stage to Glastonbury, from Oslo to Capetown.
Hyena Subpoena is a multimedia meditation on predator and prey, and the creatures within. We sit at a campsite and reflect on encounters with hyena families, a dYing Lion, lumbering elephants, endless antelopes - These stunning creatures conjure memories of the forces that shape our own lives and our drive to overcome.
Listen to the opening three poems Hyena Subpoena, Lion Queen and The Lottery for free at catkidd.bandcamp.com.
