From the USA come four atypical works, each dealing with childhood in vividly surprising ways. Felipe Vargas’s MILK TEETH (Canadian Premiere) is a dark fantasy tale that sees an orphanage spin into chaos upon the discovery of a creature not entirely dissimilar from the Tooth Fairy. If you’re wondering, yes, that’s a bad thing. A spectacularly staged and unconventionally warm-hearted creation that brings a lot to the table. Morbid imagination. Extravagant design. Social allegory. A lot of broken teeth.
