t.A .T.u - A tribute
Devised and Performed at Anatomy, Dive Queer Party and Pollyanna in 2018.
Drag artists Lars and Biff are hand in hand and attempting high femme in school skirts that are ‘too short’. They weave t.A.T.u.’s greatest hits into a choral polyphonyic score. Think a lesbian-fantasy-clown incantation. Think rage, teenage angst, Russian pop and scissoring.
With live improvised vocals, embodied movement, and a swirling soundscape it is a joyous, uncomfortable response to media sensationalism, sexualisation of young queer bodies, and internalised misogyny.
