Simon McBurney, one of the UK's most acclaimed theatre directors, makes his ENO debut in this major new collaboration with Complicite. A Dog's Heart also marks the return to ENO of master puppeteers Blind Summit Theatre, the team behind the eerily human creations seen in Anthony Minghella’s Olivier Award-winning Madam Butterfly, who bring Sharik the dog unnervingly to life.
STORY
This is the tale of a stray mongrel that becomes human after a Frankenstein-like organ transplant by his master. The tale is a Russian cultural phenomenon.
THE CAST & CREATIVE TEAM
Cast includes Steven Page, Leigh Melrose, Peter Hoare, Elena Vassilieva, Nancy Allen Lundy, Alasdair Elliott, Andrew Watts, Graeme Danby, Sophie des Mars, Matthew Hargreaves, Frances McCafferty
For this wonderful production I created the wigs for Steven Page (left) who plays the professor Filip Filopovich and Graham Danby the porter. Its a really fun and energetic show. I'm certainly kept on my toes through out with many quick changes from start to finish. They are a fantastic cast...well worth a watch!
