Performing Wild Dogs Under My Skirt, which will feature in the 2021 Dunedin Arts Festival, are Ilaisaane Green (centre on chair) and Petmal Lam (right). That is how Wild Dogs Under My Skirt producer Victor Rodger describes the award-winning show which will feature in the 2021 Dunedin Arts Festival this month. Mr Rodger said Wild Dogs began as a one-woman show by his cousin, Tusiata Avia, based on her first collection of poetry of the same name. Mr Rodger was looking forward to bringing Wild Dogs to Dunedin, as it was where Avia first performed a version of her one-woman show about 20 years ago. "[The award] came with an invitation to return [to New York] in Easter 2020 for a six-week return season, but Covid-19 had other plans for us as a company," Mr Rodger said.
