War Paint

War Paint is a theatre installation/live art performance, a process of 4 women getting ready in a private flat. It explores themes of beauty, vulnerability, insecurity, fragility and strength and questions the relationship of women to their bodies. The autobiographical piece comprises a sound installation sharing personal stories of vulnerability, insecurity and shame about our bodies; stories that bare precarious parts of our internal character. The voyeuristic audience experience develops into an intimate performer-audience relationship. It is performed in 30 minute slots as a durational performance inviting 10-15 audience members to enter the private flat within a slot.

War Paint was commissioned and premiered at Let Me In Festival, a site specific performing arts festival in Berlin and at Calm Down Dear Festival and Camden People’s Theatre in London.

The performance is suitable for 18+
