「我覺得女性是小寫」

"i think females are lowercase letters"

9 Jun 2023 @ Calm Down Dear Festival, Camden People's Theatre

 

「不是指男性就是大寫」

"Doesn't mean males are CAPITAL LETTERS"

from an all-female migrant creative team, woo woolf is a series of short devising pieces inspired by any random thing about virginia woolf, which might seem to be very or not really related to her eventually. we care about feminism, imagination and the language itself.

 

we are creating a hero or legend of females, but to arouse that subjectivity of seeing and thinking as a female in a patriarchal society.

 

what we are trying to bring on stage are the consciousness and awareness of females. and to dig out the funny and hygge daily moments that are too obvious and mundane to notice mainly through body and sound.
