The Society of Paper Dogs Presents:
LOST SHADES
“The loss of both hands is worth two hundred and fifty thousand. Both feet the same. Nothing for loss of weight or love”
What have you lost today? Your wallet? Track of time? Your temper?
Lost:SHADES is a new theatre piece that examines what it is to experience loss – whether it’s something as life changing as being exiled from one’s country or something as banal and everyday as misplacing your keys.
Combining puppetry, masks, physical threatre, live music, excerpts from the writings of Sally Rodwell and Alan Brunton, and the lowest of low-fi multimedia, LOST:Shades promises to be a show quite unlike anything else you might see on stage in Auckland at the moment.
The Society of Paper Dogs was founded when two members of the acclaimed Red Mole off-shoot group Roadworks moved to Auckland from Wellington in 2007, and joined with local actors and musicians. They aim to continue and develop the style of work that Roadworks was known for – an expedition through poetry, drama and comedy.
“Eleven spice jars. One missing.”
