Commission New Writing Live Art Co-Production

Welcome to the Bayou, a part of the city feared and loathed wherein lies the infamous Bayou Mansions; a sprawling stinking tenement block, where curtain-twitchers and peeping-toms live side by side, and the wolf... is always at the door.

Seamlessly synchronizing live music, performance and storytelling with stunning films and animation this is a wickedly twisted new tale of dubious characters inhabiting a dystopian metropolis of inner city paranoia.
