| Animation, miniatures,
watercolour, live performance and music converge, converse
and speculate on what life might be like behind the last
scrap of the iron curtain. My Dad, My Dog is
a hilarious and beautifully honest account of a North Korean
woman (Sherry J. Yoon) who is convinced
that her father has returned to her reincarnated as a dog.
Through her encounters with a man who loves pigeons (James
Fagan Tait) and a young filmmaker obsessed with
monster movies (Billy Marchenski) we discover
how much animals teach us about our own humanity. |
| A
commission of the PuSh
International Performing Arts Festival, My
Dad, My Dog is a cocreation between Sherry
J. Yoon and Jay Dodge of Boca
del Lupo and Yukon-based animation artist Jay White.
This team creates a delightfully simple world where fantasy
so seamlessly transgresses reality that you will leave
the theatre second guessing your own shadow. |
