Book Synopsis

See with your Ears.
Poor Effy. Sent to live with her aunt and uncle in a block that won't allow dogs. What's a girl to do? She smuggles her furry friend in, of course. Keeps him under a blanket. Feeds him biscuits. Ssh Toto, quiet.
But it can't last forever. Effy needs saving. And Toto is up to the task.
Experienced through headphones, Toto Kerblammo! mixes live and recorded performance to deliver a tender and powerful story about listening, friendship and finding hope in the darkest of places.

About the Author

Tim Crouch is a UK theatre artist based in Brighton. He writes plays, performs in them and takes responsibility for their production. He started to make his own work in 2003. Before then he was an actor. Tim works with a number of associates and collaborators to produce his writing. There isn't a company structure; things and people are brought together when they are needed. The starting process has always been a text written by Crouch. Early work was made in response to a self-generated impulse to tell a story or explore a form. This impulse is still the first motivation but, lately, it's become slightly more formalized through the involvement of various commissioning theatres and organizations. Tim's work tours extensively to UK and international venues and festivals.
