71BODIES will present on 3 productions: 71BODIES 1DANCE, In First Person: The Dance, and NORMAL. The first one is a 3-part production with a photography exhibition, video installation and a 71 minute solo focusing on bringing visibility and generating knowledge about the transgender community. In First Person: The Dance is created and performed by an all transgender cast. Produced during the early stages of this pandemic and in times of social distancing, we aim for intimacy. NORMAL is about bodies and stories that do not belong to mainstream society; the intersections that exist between disabilities, sexuality and gender identity.
