Of raving gods and the dogs who made them

"Of raving gods and the dogs who made them" is a non-linear exploration into the realms of myth, story, faith, thought and survival. It is also an act of compromise. Wavering on the edge of a fantasy, it chooses to focus on the subtleties and ambiguities of humanity rather than offering a singular viewpoint or possible answer to some of the world's oldest questions. It is an invitation to consider the world of the gods, the world of the humans, the meeting point and journey of three young creators and all the strength, power, fear, frailty and blurred lines that lay between. It is an exposition of willpower as three luminous characters create a surreal and transporting environment over one hour of powerful dance performance.
