With the freak show SEX AND VIOLENCE, fix+foxy brings the entertainment out in the extremes. Without any moral the show presents the sex, violence and real disaster that is the preferable entertainment of our time.
We are obsessed with the sensations. The violent, the unpleasant and the transgressive. Everything that is SEX AND VIOLENCE. In this performance, five giant puppets from society’s underbelly stand on stage executing a musical, pornographic and violent show.
By this, the audience gets the opportunity to laugh at the ugly, the strange and the unsympathetic – and the poor life of theirs.
SEX AND VIOLENCE is a muppet show for adults with a group of ugly, dumb and unrestrained giant dolls ready to go as far as needed to entertain their audience. Dolls are outside of the legal restrictions, so there is nothing they aren’t allowed to do. And luckily, the people harmed are not real!
The performance was a co-production between fix+foxy and Husets Teater and was supported by The Danish Art Council.
SEX AND VIOLENCE was performed 21 January-18 February 2012 at Husets Teater in Copenhagen.
