B*TCH EAT DOG is a puppet-filled sketch show that uses classical texts, feminist theory, and singing willies to interrogate the gendered ethics of pursuit. The show features Punch and Judy puppets performing a gender-swapped adaptation of Moby Dick, a tradwife character named Felicity Groundwater, and a hapless white male host whose misguided attempts at allyship lead to painful realizations. Created and performed by Seattle-born puppeteer Mel Carter, the piece explores girlboss feminism, tradwife culture, and the existential abyss in search of an ethical way to navigate the patriarchy. The production is performed by a cast of three and runs 50 minutes, following its world premiere at the Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry and a North American tour.
