A Practical Guide to Being a Whore

BY Manuela Montoya Ramirez / Guayabo Colectivo (FR)

A contemporary circus and physical theater piece using the trapeze, whip, and bouffon performance to draw from personal experience as a migrant sex worker, dismantling societal taboos through a raw, practical reflection on the complexities, intimacy, and armor required in sex work.

SKIN.CARE 

by Sabina Kohn Bernhard (FR)

Skin.Care is an immersive contortion and physical theatre solo that uses ASMR, prosthetics, and sensory discomfort to challenge the exhausting, societal pressures of beauty culture through the lens of personal and structural struggle.
