MY HOUSE

MY HOUSE is a bold new work by the award-winning queer, Canadian-Filipinx choreographer Ralph Escamillan (aka Kiki Legend OA Mother Posh Gvasalia and Canadian Mother Posh Basquiat). This fabulous performance celebrates Ballroom Culture, and the familial bonds embedded within the structure of a HOUSE.

Bringing the BALL from the runway to the stage, the piece features Voguers from the Canadian Scene, with local Ballroom Commentators and DJs. Subversive, joyful, and playful, MY HOUSE uses the motif of trompe l’oeil to build fantasy, beats that make you pump, and movement that carries the liberating truth of being fully oneself on the floor.

• Duration: approx 75 mins
