Deanna Fleysher in Butt Kapinski
A Film Noir installation fantasy staring the entire audience. Butt Kapinski is funny,filthy, fully-interactive and riddled with shadows, sin, sex, and violence - just like any good murder mystery. Men become whores, women become abusers, as Butt puppeteers the audience on a gender-bending ride - lit only by the angler fish style lamp above the characters head. @micomfestival #melbournecomedy @melbcomedyfestival
