Wild Dogs Under My Skirt

Brisbane Powerhouse: 27 - 30 August 2008

Brisbane Powerhouse Presents Wild Dogs Under My Skirt.

Tusiata AviaWhat do Samoan women and wild dogs have in common? Wild Dogs Under My Skirt is the hot new solo show that brings the Pacific, quietly salivating for human flesh to Brisbane.

A ground breaking, edge-of your-seat ride through the Pacific like you’ve never imagined it. Tusiata Avia delivers her confrontational, lyrical brand of performance taking you from the South Seas to the Red Sea, from the mean streets of Auckland to the sand seas of Saudi Arabia.

Warmly received by audiences as far afield as Vienna, Moscow, Hamburg and Honolulu, Wild Dogs Under My Skirt comes to Australia for the first time to shock, delight and seduce. This production looks through Pacific eyes at being a woman, being between cultures, racism, love, sex, abuse and wild dogs – the stuff you won’t find in Blue Hawaii. Be prepared to laugh, cry and have your prejudices shaken!

Written and performed by Tusiata Avia. Design by Sean Lynch.
