2017 Nelson Arts Festival | If There’s Not Dancing At The Revolution, I’m Not Coming


This is a work to wake us up a little. This is a party. This is a poem. This is a call to arms.

Fri 13 Oct, 8pm
Sat 14 Oct, 8pm
55 mins, no interval

This is a work to wake us up a little.
This is a party.
This is a poem.
This is a call to arms.

If There’s Not Dancing at the Revolution, I’m Not Coming is a rich contemporary performance collage of film scripts, pop songs, elaborate costumes, comedy, dance and live art, all stretched, teased, shattered and reassembled in order to challenge the treatment of women’s bodies in popular culture.

If There’s Not Dancing uncovers the collective fantasies underneath these bodies, intervenes and explodes them into feminist confetti.

R18: contains nudity, sexual violence & violence.
