World-famous in rural New Zealand, The Bitches’ Box has entertained woolshed and theatre audiences across the country for over a decade, with their unique blend of physical comedy, multi-character storytelling, and deep affection for country life.
Set on a typical mustering day in North Canterbury (well, almost), Episode 4 follows the action from the dogs’ point of view. The sheep may be grazing peacefully, but the working dogs are in disarray. Red and Twink, the two matriarchs of the pack, are on heat and locked in the bitches’ box, leaving underdogs Wayne and Dick convinced it’s finally their time to impress the boss.
Structured like an episode of the beloved Country Calendar, the show celebrates the real heroes of rural life: the dogs. With breakneck character changes and impeccable comic timing, Episode 4 is a barking mad love letter to the four-legged legends of the farm.
