Blending clowning, dance-theatre, and live electronic music, GIVE OR TAKE offers a queer critique of oppressive and imperialist bargains.
Join Bold Mellon Collective as they explore the power dynamics of gift-giving across
relationships and generations. Drawing from living folklore centred on femme resistance, they take the audience on a kaleidoscopic journey through time. The performance captivates with its spontaneous problem-solving, finds humour in its absurdity, and reveals a raw intimacy through its vulnerability, all propelled by a dynamic soundscape of pulsing kicks and soaring synths.
Unpacking celebration and transaction, GIVE OR TAKE asks: does anything ever truly come for free?
GIVE OR TAKE is a relaxed performance and will be BSL interpreted. If you have any questions, please email boldmellon@gmail.com
Emilia and Annie are excited to invite you to the GIVE OR TAKE accompanying workshop. It is “Pay What You Feel” and free to performance ticket holders.
Bold Mellon is an award-nominated multidisciplinary arts collective. Run by artists, for artists, Bold Mellon Collective creates and sustains uplifting art platforms for underrepresented LGBTQIA+ creatives. We’ve been artists in residence at Lyric Hammersmith Theatre (2021), NDT Broadgate (2021), Above the Stag Theatre (2021-2022), Kings Head Theatre (2023), UGLY DUCK (2024) and Stanley Arts (2022 - ongoing).
