About this Event
“BRAVE. BOLD. CAPTIVATING.”
With two beef-steaks hanging from her labia, Queer, Feminist Performance-Artist & Clown, ELOINA, stages a riotous rebellion against labia-shaming and cosmetic Labiaplasty. Labiaplasty is the surgery to make the labia smaller/more symmetrical. 9-year-olds are requesting and receiving it ON THE N.H.S. Medical professionals blame this on the lack of visibility of varied vulvas. SO IT’S TIME TO CELEBRATE THE SH*T OUT OF OUR VULVAS. Prepare to raise a glass to your labia & the labia of loved ones. Prepare to raise a middle finger to butchering your body for the aesthetics of another. Prepare for epic performance-art & comedy clowning as ELOINA hangs steaks from her labia, butchers them & sizzles them on a hot-plate. Her work is “like nothing you’ve ever seen before.” Audiences “wish (they) watched this when (they) were younger.” So come before you get any older.
