Almost six years since I performed this number live, without any idea how it would go. I'd never done anything like it before and haven't (yet) since but there's plenty time yet ;) #cabaret #lipsync #performance #europe #dance #drag

My first ever attempt at a performance art film, from early in my undergrad days. Entirely inspired by the Pina Bausch's #Tanztheater. Despite knowing nothing whatsoever about modern dance, I still gave it a serious shot. #performance #art #neoexpressionist #narrative #light

Hm, can very much relate to this!
You're supposed to be honoured and delighted 'just to be nominated' for awards, but when you're working class you can't afford to be happy missing out on a cash prize. The money means more than the recognition. We can't pay the water bill with recognition.
