Synopsis:
Michael John
Innes was born in Christchurch in 1953 and became Mick Innes
when he moved to Australia 20 years later.
With a
career spanning 3 decades in film, television and theatre,
plus 3 marriages, 2 kids, 2 grandsons, lock ups, drunk tanks
and the odd spot of bother; Mick is now turning 60 still
doing what he loves, still broke and kinda lucky to be
alive.
For 5 nights upstairs at The Basement come
listen to Mick recall whatever he can remember...
ZEN DOG is Mick Innes’s first solo show, on the eve of his 60th birthday. A veteran actor, with countless roles in New Zealand and Australia, including Bootmen, Home and Away and Echo Point in Australia and NZ’s Hounds, Sunny Skies, SuperCity and Shortland St. Mick also starred in The Basement’s MegaChristmas in 2012.
ZEN DOG is a series of raw confessions performed by
Mick, looking back into his life as an actor, as someone who
is not afraid to expose himself – what you see is what you
get.
For those who enjoy true and inspiring life stories
and are not easily offended – straight up, no
holds barred, piercing and hilarious, ZEN DOG
promises to charm and delight its audiences.
Actor/ Producer Roberto Nascimento is
making his directorial debut with this unabashed and
exciting life story.
