A event held at Arnolfini on Saturday 9th November. The event starts at 19:30.
Presented by Arnolfini as part of the Still I Rise expanded programme.
“A writer and performer of rare precision” The Stage
The ways we give in, and the ways we take control. Physically, psychologically, sexually, socially. Through the body, through language, and through structures of power.
Ways To Submit invites you in to a fantasy, a game, a dialogue, a performance, a fight: a series of duets in which power is at work.
Ways To Submit tries to understand the body – and the performance space – as a site of resistance and a site of succumbing. It explores what it means to play at dominance and submission. And who has the privilege to ‘play’?
Credits
