The show starts with iOTA (singer, songwriter, composer andactor) and Russell Leonard (singer, dancer, actor, acrobat and choreographer)standing mute and blank-faced front and centre of the stage. Both wear shortwhite towelling dressing gowns. In a long silent exchange of movement betweenthe white-faced iOTA wearing a stark black skullcap and the black leathergimp-masked Leonard, the premise of the show is set. With each movementaccompanied by comic percussion sound effects, mime establishes theirrelationship, its likely trajectory, and the underlying ambiguity ofeverything. Slap is the dominant clown and Tickle is his Gimp. Using the visualshorthand of BDSM, the masked and leather-harnessed Tickle thus becomes victimof Slaps capricious will, butt of his jokes, the literal fall guy, the uncomplainingservant. iOTA (who used to be calledSean Hape) has worked with Leonard and director Melissa Cantwell to craft amultilayered audio-visual allegory. Its huge fun on the surface, but thedeeper you dig, the more rewarding is its thoughtful commentary onrelationships, society and power. It should be remembered thatiOTA has form; his performances in Hedwig and the Angry Inch and Smokeand Mirrors earned him two of his four Helpmanns. The show is structured asold-style variety, with iOTA presenting a range of zany characters with whichLeonards gimp reacts. We meet Sirena Mistress of the Sea, who looks like aGerman fetish mistress trapped in a tennis net. We meet raucous Wayno Braino,mindreader extraordinaire, filled with ratbag energy and clad in a repurposedocelot doona cover decorated with stellar motifs. Eva the Diva is a mature aspiringleading lady; her huge white faux fox-fur stole, blonde curly wig and heelsturn her into Showbiz Barbie. Theres also a melancholy frog, a Wolf-Man(bastard child of Nick Cave and Tom Waits), and Hugo the Snake Charmer, whodoesnt quite. In everything, Leonards gimp is attendant, attempting to help,often where none is required, and needing to be noticed and accepted. Thebeauty of their interdependent relationship lies quietly at the base of everything. Each character, created on-stage,sings a song. iOTA, who wrote all the songs, sings with musical skill, anextraordinary vocal technique, hugely varied timbres, and the very best articulationyoull hear in town. He cares about the weight of each word, and the task itdoes. Theres an 11-piece jazz band which helps to create the warmth andidiosyncratic artistry of this piece. Although the Musical Director takes a bowwith the two performers, he is never named. Neither are any of the musicians.Theres a strong case here for at least a humble piece of paper on each theatreseat, listing all who have had a creative input. Near the end of the piece, theever-present gimp disappears. He re-enters, mask-less, and dances the strongest,most elegant, heart-breaking solo. It is a tribute to the ferocity andtruthfulness of iOTAs vision that both the joyous entertainment and the pathoscoexist with integrity. Reviewed by Pat. H. Wilson Rating out of 5: 5 stars.
