Description

Man meets man... discovering happiness he has never known before; but he has a wife and family at home. A dance piece choreographed from a south Asian feminist perspective, developed from AKDC's programme of workshops with women's community groups. The women shared their real-life experiences of a marriage where their partner could not express his sexuality for fear of bringing shame to the family. This experience was developed with two LGBTQ+ performers from their imagining of his perspective. You and Me is a highly energetic piece bringing the spectacle and intensity of Kathak with physicality.
