It’s all about obedience – or not. Join us for a work in progress/presentation of the Whistle II after a week in residency at Circus Factory.
“The Whistle II” is a reinterpretation of the original, acclaimed performance The Whistle. The original work centres on an artist who arrives on stage holding a single whistle. The artist declares:
“This is a whistle. When I blow the whistle, you must close your eyes. When I blow again, you may open them. Are you ready?”
