Six Quiet Dogs evokes a living room on stage. Baskets of oranges hang from the rafters, and the space is trimmed with floor-to-ceiling strips of butcher paper covered in scrawled marks. I get the sense that, like a child’s drawing pinned on the fridge, these sketches are sentimental, not just set decoration.
Above a sea of harnesses and eyeliner, one lit candle stood flickering. Around it, dozens of blinking lights on sound equipment floating in the room. All wavering in imperfect unison, all a tribute to SOPHIE.
