Five Hole (n.)
1. The space between a goalie's legs.
2. A new show that brings Canada's two favourite pastimes – hockey and sex together at last on one rollicking theatre stage.
A chronic minor-leaguer discovers the wonders – and the pitfalls – of the game in Europe, both on and off the ice. An NHL goalie is tight with his teammate, the league's leading scorer, but dreams of getting much tighter. A star on a losing streak turns to a magical salve to restore his winning touch. These and other tales make up this scintillating look at hockey with its sweaty clothes off. Five Hole is co-created and performed live by two of Canada's best known creative forces: Calgary's One Yellow Rabbit Performance Theatre and legendary Toronto rock band Rheostatics. Five Hole features original music composed and performed by the band.
"Dave Bidini is a heck of a good writer. His prose is almost conversational, creating an effect like a guy sitting at a bar telling you a good story." – The Globe and Mail
Five Hole tells the tales of the not-so-secret lives of (mostly fictional) hockey players after the puck has been put away for the night. Written by Dave Bidini of the Rheostatics, Five Hole represents his fascination with hockey and the stories collected from talking to players over the years. One Yellow Rabbit freely blend elements such as drama, dance, poetry and monologue into an unpredictable whole charting a challenging, experimental and captivating performance.
