Irreverse at Theatre Deli

SHIFT+SPACE | IRREVERSE BY LONDON BUTOH DANCE COMPANYIrreverse describes the inevitable process of being taken away from our cotton-wool cradled child.A defining moment of becoming that feels eternal and gruelling. Body out of control, spilling us into a liminal no-man's land of who the f*ck am I?We explore our transience, at the mercy of biology, in between spaces, half-baked growth spurts, weird dysmorphic tangents that dont feel good. But we dont want you to know that it hurts.Or that were desperately searching for an answer because we secretly have no idea whats going onThe shame of what we might need to steal, what we should lie about to get that affirmation, to feel accepted. To find our identity, to stop the duel of our insides and our outsides.Shame on you for looking, touching, being. And not living up to an ideal.This process looks to capture the ick, the sick, and the downright messy. Its never ending.Photo credits: Phil WilsonAge guidance: 16+Duration: 60 minutesFind out more about Posthuman Theatre:www.posthumantheatre.comInstagram:@butoh_company and @posthuman_theatre
