Festival Belluard Bollwerk International

Programme

Gisele Vienne

(Grenoble)

Jerk

Gisèle Vienne's Jerk is based on the chilling text of Dennis Cooper, the author deemed "the most dangerous writer in America". It is a story told from the vantage point of David Brooks, the real life accomplice to Texas serial killer Dean Corll who was responsible for the deaths of more than 25 teenage boys in the early 1970s. Jerk is glove puppet theatre at its starkest, a harrowing journey into the most hidden corners of the human psyche.
