ABOUT THE SHOW
Sex Dalmatian follows the adventures of a canine business-mogul, her too-eager assistant Amalia and her psychosexually charged arch nemesis Mr. Meeks. The titular character will be played by all five members of Rock Bottom Movement, rotating parts each episode, as a means to decentralize a single identity as a lead character. Sex Dalmatian places heavy feelings into bizarre containers, shining a humorous light on some of the darker corners of the collective consciousness.
Approximate run time is 90 minutes.

Outside of Rock Bottom, Alyssa has choreographed for Toronto Dance Theatre, The Stratford Festival, Tarragon Theatre, Canadian Contemporary Dance Theatre, FAWN Chamber Collective, with many post-secondary dance programs, and in residence at arts centres including The Banff Centre, Canadian Stage and The National Ballet of Canada (CreativAction). She has the ongoing pleasure of collaborating as a director, choreographer and movement director in theatre, musical theatre, opera and film. She recently toured Rock Bottom’s newest work, DINO, is currently choreographing a new duet with Susie Burpee and Linnea Swan, and looks forward to sharing Sex Dalmatian in 2023.
