A dance party love letter to our community, expressing the joy of relation in the abstract and through actual physical proximity.

A performance for dry ice and four specially constructed steel tables, each one heated by a single candle until searingly hot.
A dense, hard, immersive, chaotic spatial performance in sound: a momentary gap in consciousness, free of order or decision.

(Cyber)feminist, non-essentialist transgender and queer daily radio shows using the formula of morning radio as an arch way of thinking about the scripted behaviour and controlled empathy of systematic care.
First live show outside the USA featuring one-off film pieces and live theatre from the ringleaders of the ‘weird new America’ psych folk explosion.
Slapstick comedy, monologue, and a kind of live sculpture transformed through video, props, musical instruments and make-up.
