'STAY! + Around the World in a Lunar Day'
Stacy Makishi

A dinner party has had one drink too many and now Elizabeth Taylor lifts the petticoats of a love affair that’s gone to the dogs. Film noir collides with Pet Rescue in this hilarious examination of co-dependence, malicious domination and the subversion of the natural order. STAY! draws its inspiration from the paintings of Paula Rego, Who’s Afraid Of Virginia Woolf and Lassie Come Home. Developed with Lyric Hammersmith.

“A brutal blur between human lovers, dog and owner, performer and understudy. Two performers appear to live in a black box studio and explore a sadomasochistic relationship of dominance, dependence and subversion.” Total Theatre November 2009

“Incredibly funny and immensely touching” Edinburgh Festival Magazine 2009

...and we're very lucky to be getting a sneak peak of a work-in-progress of Stacy Makishi's new show...

Around the World in a Lunar Day

An upliftingly sad and elegaic tale of love, loss and moonlight.

"Stacy Makishi was simply astounding... she ruptured the building... bringing the audience to a creative climax. Makishi took us on a journey through a rollercoaster excavation of modern anxieties and ironies" EAR Magazine
