Music Title: ‘Its My Party and I’ll Cry if I want to’ (first performed as Group Bondage at St James Cabaret 2011…)
Music Artist: Lesley Gore
In Flagrante show dance title: It’s my party
Choreography/narrative/theme:
This dance satirises the eternally confused, needy and classically insecure bimbo – the object of pop culture female stereotyping. It has a cast of two or four captive blondes searching for approval and love.
Dancers: Amanda Macfarlane, Maria Munkowits, Shanelle Lenehan
In Flagrante show dance title: HORSES (first performed St James cabaret 2011
Music Title: Horses Burlesque
Music Artist: Andrew Keoghan
Choreography/narrative/theme:
‘Horses’ engages with a clear-eyed kick in the funny bone and a garrulous oddball innocence all of its own. A short work with four female dancers whose impudent charm and ironic ingenuous humour, satirise female servitude as sexual avatars and objects of fetish and dangerous desire.

In Flagrante show dance title: DAY
Music title: Our Day Will Come
Music Artist: Klaus Waldeck
Choreography/narrative/theme:
Playing on the ironic possibilities of Our Day will Come– this work taps into the smoky layers of Waldeck’s render of this classic track. A darkly theatrical, rawly sexual detour into a toxic utopia…where a day of reckoning is manifest. Comedic, stylish and deeply satirical.

Music Title: MEMORIES
Music Artist: Klaus Waldeck
Choreography/narrative/theme:
This work, set to the brassy strutting beat of Memoriesdraws its inspiration from a 1950’s treatise on wifely etiquette and the deference she should pay her husband. As a comedic counterpoint the dancer prowls, pouts and piss-takes – a sexualised vamp mocking the condescension and patriarchy of the spoken words.
