In this experimental show Maiden China and SKIM explore the weight of representation, the complexities and intersections of gender, race, and sexuality, and what it means to be in their bodies in public and private spheres. The performance shares insights into vulnerable experiences and gestures of refusal in being consumed by the audience’s gaze. SKIM and Maiden China push the boundaries of mediums through sharing their own narratives and intersecting drag with theatre, mixed with care, play and performance art.
