I Wish I Were a Cat 2006/2007
Human Rights abuses. People detained without being charged. Forced shaving. Terrorist paranoia. Sounds familiar? Don't worry this is Argentina in the seventies during the bloodiest military dictatorship. Any similarities with the present are purely coincidental.
'I wish I were a Cat' is a dark tale of unfulfilled dreams, curfews and despair where imprisonment is lying in wait.
Miren's unique tragic-comedy style is to tell stories not commonly addressed, combining physical theatre, slapstick, with visually rich images.
Co-Directed by Brenda Waite & Amy Rose (Bocadalupa) Associate Director John Wright (‘Told by an Idiot’) Designer Alberto Santos-Bellido Composer Chris Powell.
