Vicious Dogs on Premises is a new dance/theater piece about deciding between cruelty and love. It is also about training guard dogs, having too many choices, following instructions, and shifting loyalties. It may include such events as: Butoh Dancing or Imaginary Alpine Folk Dancing or Gestures an Angry Lawyer Makes in Court. It could include people talking about Threatening Things Said to Children or Efficient Fuel Sources. You might see people decide between Balancing On One Foot or Falling Down Repeatedly.

Witness Relocation formed in 2000 and is led by director/choreographer Dan Safer. They are the recipients of the 2007 NY Innovative Theater Awards for best choreographer, best sound design, and best production (also nominated for best ensemble, lights, and costumes). The critically acclaimed company has created ten original productions, engaged in a two year residency at the renowned Patravadi Theatre in Bangkok, and performed in theaters, nightclubs, rock videos, and on a Thai TV Soap Opera.
