- More about Truth's a Dog Must to Kennel
Tim Crouch's new solo work, Truths a Dog Must to Kennel, combines ideas of virtual reality to send the Fool back to the future of the play that he left. It is a daringly unaccommodating piece of theatre that switches between scathingly funny stand-up and an audacious act of collective imagining, combining King Lear, stand-up, and the metaverse.

The moment arrives when the jokes fail us, and I, too, fail. It is a pivotal moment, etched in time, for it is when I decide to leave King Lear. Before the blinding, the killing, and the ice-creams during the interval. In his remarkable solo work, playwright Tim Crouch harnesses the power of virtual reality to transport the Fool back to the future of the play he abandoned. Back to a world devoid of moral leadership and integrity; a world where wealth conceals vice; where the poor are dehumanized; where the jokes fall flat; where live art becomes the privilege of the few. Truths a Dog Must to Kennel is a daringly uncompromising theatrical piece that seamlessly switches between scathingly funny stand-up and an audacious act of collective imagining. King Lear meets stand-up meets the metaverse. Crouch's previous celebrated works include An Oak Tree, The Author, Adler & Gibb, Total Immediate Collective Imminent Terrestrial Salvation, and Beginners. This edition was published in conjunction with the production at The Royal Lyceum Theatre Edinburgh in August 2022.
