“The Long Pigs is juvenile, blasphemous and almost completely inexplicable. But it is probably the most engrossing and satisfying work of physical theatre I’ve seen in the better part of a decade: strange and terrific indeed.”
THE AUSTRALIAN
In a surreal world that could have been created by Jean-Pierre Jeunet or Tim Burton, this very black comedy pushes the boundaries of physical theatre. Killer clowns dissect concepts of individuality and difference as they search for the one victim that has eluded them.
Spine tingling original theatre that is hilariously dark and frighteningly funny.
Join this underground clown cult that audiences have been raving about.
Set in an rickety abattoir-shack, the Pigs are working hard on their latest obsession, to rid the world of every last red nose clown.
They’re in a pig-eat-pig world where exclusion, derision and brutality get you places. However, the count of the catch reveals all is not well. They are one nose short!
Sold Out in Melbourne! Smash Hit of the Sydney Festival!
“Superior physical performance, sharp direction, outrageous humour and intelligent design make this a dark-hearted jewel”
