Straight from the swamp to set the record straight …      

Come and behold the Florida folktale legend, captured and shipped to her UK debut, for your twisted delight!

 

Florida's tourism outreach team has worked tirelessly to capture, neutralise, and raise the last-ever Snoligoster in the ways of the Florida Man. Come marvel at the ageless abomination's propellor tail; stay for a live demonstration of the power of a Florida upbringing on even the basest of creatures' psyches.


This show's got everything: oral folklore, C-list cult deconstruction, and Jimmy Buffet dance breaks. 'Snoligoster' is a loving exposée—and cautionary tale—attempting to answer the question, 'Why IS Florida so weird?' This camp, swampland fantasia from London's local Floridian uncovers just what can happen when any old tall tale can be taken for truth.

“Enigmatically something else.”
Audience member [on Trephination for the Twenty-First Century]

“What was visceral on the page, [Amanda] made reassuring... [she treats] the audience with a wonderful amount of dignity.”
Ellie Harrison, The Grief Series [on Trephination for the Twenty-First Century]

 

‘I can’t come up with an adequately uplifting equivalent for the word “haunting,” but if it exists, this unforgettable ethereal epistolary experiment would be its living definition.'

 About the Company:

Amanda & Jess (also known as Squid & Sausage) share a love of storytelling that brings those of us living on the fringes closer together in radical ways. They most recently worked together on the UK Tour of Trephination for the Twenty-First Century, reclaiming former surgical operating theatres for our mad ancestors who were ‘treated’ there. Their work prioritises lived expertise, neurodivergent & Disabled-led accessibility, and transformative justice. They met on Tumblr ten years ago.
