What happens when you suddenly feel removed from the life you once loved? At three different points in his career, comedian John Tilt Animus learns surprising lessons that could one day lead to his downfall.
Justin Hamilton's new three-part creative masterpiece follows the rise and fall of John Tilt Animus. Like the Marvel movies, see one show for one story or see all three for a mega-story.
Part One: 'Three Dances' reveals the moment John fell from grace as he appears three times on a talk show and learns truths he isn't prepared for.
Part Two: '…In a Dark Wood' focuses on three comedians toasting the death of John. The only problem? Nobody can agree which John died. And what is in that package that was left near the front door?
Part Three: 'The Girl in the Song' finds John waking in a place he doesn't recognise being interviewed by a woman he doesn't know; her threats are intensifying. Should John be fearing for his life?
