Shhh… Can you hear it?
There’s a rustling in the undergrowth.
Can you see it now?
Somehow familiar yet… it’s long and sinuous and menacing.
Strange… it looks like a poem… but it’s alive – it bites.
Enjoy the whimsy while you can. Innocence doesn’t last.
Meet a few of the cast:
People:
Scarface – a gangster who knits scarves
Marsha – a marshal partial to martial arts
Weeny Todd the Barber – let’s just say he has an edge
Animals:
A couple of dogs :
Jack (the Ripper) – a bitter splitter of hares
Hooch – a duty-free spirit
Some tasty Welsh rabbits
A bee with a lisp
And devils…
…oh yes, the devils.
A simple night’s sleep. Just the usual movements and sounds outside. The sleeper dreams…
Enter his dream… a narrative in which a world of menace – natural, supernatural and unnatural – gradually unfolds within a whimsical stream of (often distorted or inverted) events and references.
