In a decidedly deviant conceptualisation from the usual plethora of female-led work this International Women’s Day, -wright Assembly breaks the mould to present a new interdisciplinary, movement-based performance choreographed by Ismail Jemaah, primarily featuring male performers, as it explores the concept of male responsibility in the ongoing fight for gender equality. … Continue reading Review: Kotor by -wright Assembly
