An Autopsy of a Mother, a Bear and a Fridge
2025‘Rage hides a wound’ Sharon Blackie
You are warmly invited to witness the examination of three seemingly unconnected objects.
As Deborah uncovers connective tissue, between mother, bear and fridge, she reveals her own vulnerability, anger, humour and strength. With cold clinical brutality, warm openness and hot feminist rage she exposes both personal experiences and patriarchal systems that place pressure on the female body.
A powerful and intimate dance/theatre experience.
A script (paper or digital) will be available here in advance, on request and at the performance. This script contains visual reference points and details about the music/sound elements contained in the production.
Some of the music composed for the show by Tic Ashfield is available on Soundcloud.
