About the Program

David Yonge's performane Yellow Diablo is equal parts professional wrestling and sound assault. The costume (as well as some of the theatrics) is a replica of a 1970's Mexican wrestler. The Yellow Diablo appears in costume preparing for a match and wired with 15 microphones. Diablo's opponents are inanimate household objects that could not fight back even if they wanted to.
