The Reading Troupe #15 : De-production First Trimester – Abolish the Family
Description
Household present a workshop designed and facilitated by artist Lyónn Wolf as part of their project De-production focusing questions of time and trans temporality and thinking about how the collapse of ecosystems brought about by colonial logics shapes our understandings of reproduction, ageing and work.
THE READING TROUPE is a nomadic and mutating practice of performative reading techniques developed by Wolf. Incorporating improvisation, collage, speculative writing, and collective cut-ups, this collaborative practice is an attempt to collectively enter the body of a text through play, somatic response and political theatre tools as alternatives to academic language.
For this session readings include Abolish the Family by Sophie Lewis and Trans Care by Hil Malatino.
Admission is FREE with advance registration
Age Suitability: 18+
Duration: 120 mins
In partnership with Household Belfast supported by Arts Council of Northern Ireland and Belfast City Council, and with Paperclips.
