Unman is a quest for both masculinity and femininity; an inquiry into characteristics, behaviour and preferences attributed to the various genders. Is it feasible to disconnect from each other and from social expectations?
The performance is situated in a world in which territorial boundaries and those with regard to form and identity blur. A world in which fraternity and distrust meet to explore one another; where strength and vulnerability interact.
Unman liberates the dancers from the fixed pattern, freed from expectations but yearning for something to hold on to.
