Beauty of the Beast is a full-length work by Anthony Misson for Company Chameleon, featuring a funny, moving and subversive look at male group dynamics. It peels back and uncovers the many faces of man – strength, camaraderie, uncertainty, a yearning to belong, vulnerability and hostility; and what happens when affiliation becomes identity. This imaginative, fragmented narrative is based largely on gang mentality, violent and rough yet beautiful and poetic at the same time.
