Two good pigs are dead. The mutilated bodies of the brothers, decorated police officers both, were found in their respective homes on the same night of a savage and grizzly revenge crime. The prime suspect, a wolf, is still at large … and he wants the third little pig dead.
The Three Little Pigs is a taut psychological thriller set in a world where Animal Farm meets Reservoir Dogs, and gives rise to a dark and unexpected take on the classic children’s story. A delightfully twisted collaboration between multi-award-winning artists Tara Notcutt (… miskien, Mafeking Road), James Cairns (Dirt, Sie Weis Alles), Albert Pretorius (Doodsnikke, … miskien) and Rob van Vuuren (Rob van Vuuren – Live!, The Most Amazing Show), The Three Little Pigs is a riveting and subversive adaptation of an age-old tale.
Described as “dark, brilliantly acted satire” (Estelle Simkins, The Witness) and “a political thriller that surprises at every turn” (Steve Kretzmann, Artsblog), The Three Little Pigs will enjoy a Cape Town season before its international tour to Perth, New York and Amsterdam.
