Dancing Cow Show

A homely cowboy bring his life-sized cows onstage to entertain you with their synchronized line-dancing, in a performance reminiscent of a country fair.

However, half way through the show everything flips and the cowboy strips to reveal the mad Butcher in his bloodied apron and knife. Continuing their dance steps and synchronised dressage, the cows act out the sick demands of their owner.

Even when the cows are finally slaughtered with repeated knife wounds and bullets, their innards dance and seduce the butcher into a sexual frenzy.
