Fur on The Forward Line: A MUSTBOP

Fur on The Forward Line: A MUSTBOP

By Monash Uni Student Theatre (MUST, MSA)

In this year’s MUST BOP (MUST B-grade Overdubbing Project), we examine the impact of animals competing in human sporting leagues. Should a boxing kangaroo receive a wine sponsorship? Should a chimp with overbearing parents be compelled to play? How many dunks can a golden retriever make, & will the Soviets ever release his blood tests? Follow Matilda, Bonzo, & Airbolov Budinski through their trials & tribulations.

Episode 3 - Going For Gold

Matilda’s legacy left a deep rooted recognition of the sheer advantage animals have over humans in sporting leagues. Despite several attempts to reach fame greater than that of Matilda, many have failed. But there is one who will make it - his name is Bonzo, and he is going for gold.
