Oblivious is a radical revelation of the forces that shape us into who we are. But what if you yourself also participate in the script that is keeping you captive?
In House of circus’ new performance, Hayden and Iconnee find themselves in a psychologically charged arena. they navigate. With circus, drag & humour, a mindgame unfolds in which nothing is what it seems.
On a stage shaped by social codes, every crack in the mask becomes visible.
With the use of costumes, scenography and confrontations, HoC shows how identity is not simply a choice from a clothes rack, but an ongoing negotiation to be claimed with a self-written script.
