I, Animal
An after-hours audio tour of Melbourne Zoo.
Overview
It is a law of the entertainment jungle that everywhere must eventually get into multimedia. This is true even of the zoo, which is about to play host to a truly unusual experience : I, Animal.
The show takes the form of an after-hours audio tour of Melbourne Zoo, except instead of dry spoken commentary, the audio tracks incorporate music and performance tailored to the animal exhibits. There will also be live theatrical performances at different points on the tour.
It’s the work of Adelaide theatre company The Border Project, who have recently done a similar piece, I Am Not An Animal, in their hometown zoo. There the show involved yodelling at the mountain goat exhibit, sci fi themes for the gibbons and actors in pink gumboots in the flamingo pond. What they’ve come up with for Melbourne remains to be seen but it’s sure to be wild.
