Jonas Eika's resort fable Bad Mexican Dog comes to Sort/Hvid in Copenhagen as a piece of musical theatre for young people and adults. Drawn from his short story collection Efter solen, which won the Nordic Council Literature Prize in 2019, the production tells a queer, poetic story of class, following beach boys who live in the shadow of the tourists at a Mexican holiday resort.
Directed by Emil Rostrup, with set design by the duo GRIF (Ditte Tygesen and Mikkel Rostrup), known for an askew and brutal visual style, the show promises a surreal, ritual charter-flight hell, played alongside a live Latin American band. The cast features Ludvig Brostrup, Tani Dibasey and Antonio Salcedo.
