Oniz have performed 2 small shows at the Horseplay Arts Club at Proud Galleries in Camden recently. Their first piece was in March and was called 'The Greatest Love Story Ever Told....Probably.' It involved Oniz taking the audience to the city of love...Paris and telling them the world's greatest love story..however there was something preventing the terrible twosome...mmmm what was it again?
The second show was in Horseplay's April event and saw Oniz take their audience on 'The Greatest Night Ever'. However one bottle of rum later things descended into madness with spilt drinks and dodgy pole dancing. With heels in hand, make up smudged and beer goggles, the audience are immersed into drinks, drinks and erm oh yeah more drinks.
Oniz were involved in a puppetry piece at the Market Estate project in Islington in March. Mauren Pereira curated one of the flats at the event, she hosted an all day tea party where Oniz and friends were the hosts for a few hours. The piece was conceived by Elizabeth Dapo as a Mad Hatter tea party. She made some incredible puppets that we helped to puppeteer. The party was a success with lots of flying biscuits, spilt tea and pink balloons.
