The Twittique / TL;DR

A trifecta of intense choreography from @ hong_kong_soul_ that dissects & reclaims the misogynist ‘Kong Girl’ label. Stark, robotic, deceiving— each piece is a layered critique of the performance of femininity. Contemporary dance sceptics, brace yourselves: this is refreshingly odd & dazzlingly poignant.
