SUMMARY:TESTO
DESCRIPTION:TESTO celebrates transitions\, testosterone and the edges of drag–a chaotic\, heartfelt\, and hilariously unhinged deep dive into the mess of becoming. Here\, performance and reality blur until what’s made-up somehow feels truer than truth. Expect moustache meals\, dykey desires\, and a choreography of guttural sexuality that pinches at the dull flesh of everyday life until it sparkles. At once absurd and sincere\, TESTO finds the magical in the mundane—the moment when laughter curdles into revelation\, and fantasy becomes flesh. It’s awkward\, erotic\, disarming\, and deeply human: a love letter to transition\, embodiment\, and all our leaking edges.

SUMMARY:Kamwe Kamwe
DESCRIPTION:Kamwe Kamwe (One by One) is a force of movement and song—a meeting of ancestral rhythm and contemporary resistance. On a sand-covered stage\, four Zimbabwean dancers move through a terrain of poles\, elastics\, and projected images\, their bodies speaking what history has silenced. Echoes of those disappeared through colonial and ongoing violence are carried in the haunting truths revealed through body and voice. \nChoreography that transforms dance into testimony\, this is a reckoning on racism and human rights—a body-to-body reminder that liberation is built in motion\, and that no one moves forward alone. Kamwe Kamwe (One by One) is both protest and prayer: a dance of solidarity rising from the dust.
