Fraudulent Behaviour uses prose, invisible friends, a decoy duck and cardboard cut-outs to create a witty and thoughtful performance in response to Nietzsche’s assertion “We need lies in order to live…”

Fraudulent Behaviour is a philosophically playful exploration of everyday lies and self-deception.

The narrative unfolds using spoken word, movement and a series of objects that play with notions of what may be perceived as real. Inherent in the work is a humorous use of language, both in delivery and writing style.

Ideas, themes and content loop back on themselves to create a dense and evocative theatrical experience.

Conceptually, Dennis plays with notions of time and space, interweaving real and imagined worlds to create a compelling and insightful performance about the illusory nature of life.
