This autumn Buzzcut Productions will be taking their critically acclaimed show BARK BARK on tour across nine venues in the South East from the 12 to 24 of November, supported by house theatre network and Arts Council England.

BARK BARK tells the eerie tale of a young couple who answer an ad to house and dog-sit. What unfolds is an unnerving story told through relatable characters, blending live music and sophisticated performance with technology, as the show’s boundless creativity unfurls right in front of the audience.

Gabe tells us more about BARK BARK and what audiences can expect:

1. Can you tell us a little more about what audiences can expect and who the show might appeal to?
2. The show uses Buzzcut Productions' trademark technical wizardry to blend puppetry, miniature diorama sets, live music and performance with cinema projection. What is the most exciting part about devising a show that is made up of so many different art forms?
3. Can you tell us a little more about the live music score and how music is integrated into part of the performance?
4. The story is told from the perspective of the dog. How did you start to develop his personality?
5. What are you most looking forward to about taking the show out on the road across the South East?
