ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
It’s a love triangle between a saintly and philosophical cat, a cynical egotist of a mouse and Ignatz, who obsessively seeks to “bean that Kat’s noodle” with a brick. Krazy, blind with love and an idealistic naivety, awaits each brick with joy.
Based on the comic strip Krazy Kat (1913-44) and its cartoonist George Herriman it is set in Coconino County, a landscape inspired by the Navajo lands of Monument Valley in Arizona with endlessly shifting skies, burnt-orange buttes and mesas, flapjack moons and lunatic cacti.
A work in progress brought to life with Tête à Tête’s ingenious flair.
