LITTLE DOGS

In partnership with FRANTIC ASSEMBLY
Inspired by DYLAN THOMAS

Across the city, hearts are beating and the mating ritual has begun. In the nightclubs, the bus shelters, the back streets and the sand dunes, daring girls and reckless boys engage in a desperate dance while the less fortunate observe and pretend it doesn't hurt. Created by Frantic Assembly, and staged in Swansea’s richly atmospheric Patti Pavilion, this production is inspired by the Dylan Thomas story 'Just Like Little Dogs' and the furtive hours so many of us have spent searching for kindness and warmth in the shadows of the city.

REMY BEASLEY

JORDAN BERNARDE

Comment by Scott Graham on April 26, 2012 at 23:07: Hi Debbie. You can bank on direct address, sweaty beats, some open hearts and plenty of smut.

I think that answers your question

Comment by Debbie Hewett on April 26, 2012 at 22:43: Is this show going to be reminiscent of your early stuff which I remember as being a bit more confessional in style i.e. lots of direct address?

Also , are you actually in the Patti rehearsing?

Comment by steven hoggett on April 26, 2012 at 10:02: long long day rehearsing but we got some sweet results, some dirty activity in toilet cubicles, some beautiful love letters and if tonight's session is anything to go by, some spectacular bruises to marvel at in the morning.... happy days, then...
