I went to see Cirque du Soleil's
KOOZA show in Washington, D.C. last night (p.s. IT IS FANTASTIC GO SEE IT NAOW), and one of the characters is a (person in a) dog (suit) that runs around on stage with Keystone-esque police officers, trying to catch a pickpocket clown. It barks incessantly, it cocks its ears, it chases after criminals, it jumps up and licks people's faces, and it pees on the audience.
For those of us who can never remember character names post-story, Officer Bull is the K9 in "How I Mounted Goldie, Saved My Partner Lori, and Sniffed Out the People's Justice." I could not stop laughing thinking about the dog enthusiastically shouting "FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!"
So this isn't necessarily a one-off thread, discuss how you have been reminded of Escape Artists stories in totally different contexts.
