Production Details / Press Releases
“M/f Duet” is a romantic work with a particular focus on the power dynamic and disparities often embedded in Male/female romantic relationships. Despite our best intentions we tend to re-enact outdated behaviour in our relationships. Yet when we are alone and without love we have a bodily loneliness, a physical hunger for caring touch that is deeper than lust and harder to satisfy. This duet deals with the difficulties and vulnerabilities of deeply connecting and struggling to balance our relationships as well as this unsatisfied hunger of the body in the times in between loves.
