Six feet below us, beyond a forest of pipes and darkness, lies another world. This realm, known as the Household, is stranger than fiction, and ancient world filled with odd histories, strange continents and peculiar physics. The Blackheart Gang has just returned from an expedition to the darkest of the Household Continents, the largely unexplored Bog. In this expedition the Gang managed to retrieve a number of relics and curiosities that can be found on display.
In 2010 the National Geographic Society commissioned the Blackheart Gang to replicate an event that they witnessed more than a hundred years ago which later proved to change the world as we know it.
The words “irrelevant nonsense” springs to mind when examining this infamous dinner party, which took place near the end of the War of Threes. In this depiction we find The two Netherwoods (Arrabella and her son Christiaan), the Enduring Red Fountain (the lord of running waters of the Swartberg), and of course a few key figures in the tribe of exiled Piranhas.
Behind the scenes look at the production process of Tale of How. We were asked to do a talk at Resfest Capetown. We had one of these Q&A’s before, where we just stood there in front of a theatre full of people staring blankly at us and we staring blankly back at them. We decided that for this event we will answer questions without people having to ask them (even if they never planned to ask them in the first place) and we made this documentry instead. Done over a weekend on a stolen computer, with more action stories that we dare not mention…
