Bloody Mess

Work:: Bloody Mess (S1640976420)

Intelligent, darkly comic and unexpectedly moving. A delinquent cheerleader dances and yells. A strobe light flickers, pointed at the ground. Rock-gig roadies. A woman in a gorilla suit. A sound check. An interview. A seductive monologue. A bloke starts to tell the history of the world but is quickly interrupted. A beautiful, beautiful silence. Challenging, provocative and not for the faint-hearted, Bloody Mess defies description and categorisation, creating a startling and comical new logic from the collisions of disconnected characters, stories and performances. Influenced by popular culture, cinema, contemporary art and the occasional dash of heavy metal, Bloody Mess takes these disparate elements and creates a whole that is intelligent, darkly comic and unexpectedly moving. Contains strong language, nudity and strobe lighting. Not suitable for under 16 years.
