The performers use a range of theatrical devices including puppetry, illusion and sleight of hand. This is puppetry for adults that is sensual and anarchic, dripping deliciously with lust and longing...forbidden of course.
Inspired by Hieronymous Bosch's triptych - The Garden of Earthly Delights - three performers weave a loose creation myth with objects, foodstuffs, video, puppets - and a chicken. Previewed during the 2006 International Puppet Carnival to near capacity audiences, this time it will be blacker, funnier and sexier.
Performed by Rod Primrose, Hamish Fletcher and Olivia Crang.
Directed by Nancy Black.
Black Hole Theatre has produced a number of highly acclaimed productions, including the Melbourne sell-out season of Caravan that then toured to Europe, Hong Kong, Ireland and the UK with great success.

ReviewsIn the Beginning...uhmmmm - Black Hole Theatre
In the Beginning… uhmmm… is like Sunday School for anarchists. It’s clever, it’s dark, it’s funny and it has puppets. But beware: it should also come labelled with a warning for vegetarians.
