Description

AVOEC is coming to the UK, all the way from Budapest, to bring you the performance

::: RMQS - "Raising My Queer Self" and the workshop RADICAL SLOTH - Performance as self-care.

AVOEC is a Budapest-based company which creates work that disrupts binaries, embraces uncertainty and revels in quiet spectacles. Working between the realms of performance, theatre and live art, their work is concerned with the experimental edges of traditional art making.

RMQS is a versatile performance that combines text, movement, sound, presence and absence as it engages with issues surrounding being queer - particularly within the process of growing up in an environment that is not accepting of a non-hetero identity. It creates a queer feminist framework for addressing questions of (not) belonging, eroticism and gender.

RMQS will be performed in London as part of the BlackBox Festival on January 8th at 6.30 pm and January 9th at 8pm. In Brighton, the Marlborough Theatre will present RMQS on January 14th at 8pm.

Brighton will also receive the workshop RADICAL SLOTH - Performance as self-care on the 14th at 3pm.

:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

I have many things I’d like to say to you / but I don’t know where to begin.

Do I start with you / me / them?

Do I start at the beginning / middle / end?

RMQS is what wasn’t, what couldn’t have been.

RMQS is self-exposure and vulnerability.

RMQS is the space in between.

RMQS was made with support from the Workshop Foundation (Műhely Alapítvány) and SÍN Kulturális Központ.
