Headless — Performed Reading by Alex Quicho & Elizabeth Gabrielle Lee

MAH
Booking Required

A performed reading by Alex Quicho and Elizabeth Gabrielle Lee that probes decapitation as both metaphor and material. Quicho, a London-based theorist and writer, blends critical writing, performative lecture and moving-image practice; Lee, artist and research director, works with new media, orality and public programming to examine post‑tropical environments, psychic rupture and neo‑gothic currents. The piece pairs rigorous theorizing with embodied voice and subtle sonic textures, creating an intimate, spectral atmosphere. Presented during a residency curated by Jade Meili Barget.

Written by Penda Diouf and staged by Evelyne Castellino, LA GRANDE OURSE is an ecofeminist fable that traces a mother’s descent after a minor incident becomes criminalized. Combining video, choreographed movement and choral voices, the piece weaves police violence, racism and sexism into a hallucinatory, dystopian world where omnipresent surveillance watches every gesture. As the heroine reconnects with ancestral nature by transforming into a bear, the production evokes animal survival instinct, collective gossip and the fragile line between humanity and wildness, offering a visceral, poetic reflection on power and resistance.

The piece juxtaposes tactile puppet performance with live filmic effects to produce surprising, humorous and uncanny moments.
