Sandglass Theater presents:
Feral: A Piece About Women & Wolves
Friday, May 8 at 6:30 PM on the historic Rothrock Main Stage
Age recommendation: 14+
A mesmerizing blend of puppetry, music, and visual theater from one of Vermont’s most celebrated performing arts companies.
Have you heard the joke about the she-wolf that is bitten by a werewolf and turns into a woman? This production presents the punchline of that strange, dark farce of domestication.
Feral follows a woman’s journey through the tension between intuitive knowledge and learned societal behavior, captured by an allegorical transformation into a werewolf. As she tries to reintegrate this wild voice, she wrestles with her sanity while being diagnosed with a growing feral condition. Within the protection of her domelike dress, domestic acts are disrupted by ancestral visitations and dreams of wolves.
Content Note
This performance includes a brief, humorous sexual encounter and a moment of strobing light.
