My Body as a Commodity - Anne-Laure Vandeputte

your trauma has a beat My Body as a Commodity is a sultry musical trip that explores the boundaries of fiction. Under high energy live percussion, theater maker Anne-Laure Vandeputte investigates in which narratives our bodies - consciously or unconsciously - are inscribed. She meets a director who wants to talk about strong women. She meets a man who wonders if he appears in the show. She meets a sex worker in Berlin and bombards her into her own personal jesus. Together with musician Andrew van Ostade, Vandeputte brings a monologue-on-beats that questions and challenges the narrative about physical trauma. trigger warning: there may be sexual violence trigger warning: where there’s pain there’s a party
