An acclaimed performance artist is bringing her powerful show to Lancaster.
The performance shines a spotlight on issues that queer woman face on a daily basis.
Barely Visible by Rowena Gander is an empowering physical solo performance that explores "sexualisation, (fe)male gaze and what it really feels like to live in the shadows".
With incredible strength, a 100-kilo vertical pole, and a lot of humour, this powerful solo performance covers identity, objectification and what it is to be a gay, 'barely visible' woman in a raw and physical journey of empowerment.
The show incorporates elements of physical theatre, pole and contemporary dance, with Rowena, and acclaimed physical theatre director, Elinor Randle, bringing playfulness, authenticity, and boldness to a mesmerising work.
Rowena's Barely Visible 2023 Tour will kick off at The Arts Centre in Ormskirk on 9th February 2023 before visiting Lancaster, Blackpool, London and Liverpool, with more dates to be announced soon.
Rowena has developed a reputation over the past seven years as a performer who creates work that is accessible, powerful, empowering to audiences, and thought provoking.
The tour will also feature pre and post-show conversations with audiences as well as movement workshops on sexuality.
