Lara's Brown Afternoons: A Solo Descent Into Piss, Vomit and Shit

Lara's Brown Afternoons is an intimate, solo portrait of a woman thoroughly at home in the dirtiest play. Across a full hour she works through piss, vomit and shit on her own terms, needing no partner to reach the extremity she craves. That self-sufficient devotion is exactly what draws the solo-loving corner of the scat slaves crowd to this early Hightide classic.

There is a genuine honesty to watching a performer indulge purely for herself, with no audience to play up for and no script to follow. Lara sets her own unhurried pace, savouring each stage of the mess, and the result feels like a genuine private afternoon caught on tape. It is proof that solo can hit as hard as any group video. For company and heavier group play, step into the wider scat collection.
