Having co-founded Bad Host Theatre, I continue to develop, pitch and create new shows with them. Here is our most recent example:
Swines s an interactive performance (in development) in which audiences compete for their dream job. It explores capitalist culture through the lenses of extreme austerity and the British gameshow craze.
On your marks - get set - go! Climb that ladder, reach for the stars, follow your dreams! You can be anything you want to be. Let Bad Host Entertainment* make it easy for you.
Swines is a satirical performance inspired by Britain's game show/talent show culture and the current eco-political climate. In a future not so difficult to imagine competition is entertainment, experience is irrelevant and if you don’t fit in the box you don’t stand a chance.
A playfully absurd performance which asks how much control we really have over our futures?
*(The bastard child of a British game show and hardcore bingo tournaments, mixed with some cheap biscuits and glitter for good measure.) Perforned at Stoke Newington Intertantional Aiport, 47/49 Tanner Street and The Roundhouse Camden.
