One dancer, a projection screen, a live camera, a set of silicone abs, and a question: How does a body 'do' masculinity?
Making of a Man starts out like a TED talk, navigating through pop culture, politics, and personal interviews, before becoming a more slippery exploration of the leaky containers we build for masculine identity. Who gets to 'do' masculinity and how, and what potential lies in the unsettling of masculinity's rigidly chiseled codes? Welcome the gust play from our sister festival Arena…of the young arts.
