Does your body define your gender?
The WOMAN HOUSE is an eye catching quartet in which four female performers abandon their feminine worlds to step into a male universe where they transform themselves into men and question their masculinities.
What is it to be man? Is this the same as being masculine? Does your body define your gender? Where does the masculine begin and the feminine end? With these questions in mind the lines between constructed maleness and their own female bodies are explored. Together they mock, fight and frenzy as they embark on a bizarre journey.
The Woman House was originally created as part of a double program with the performance ReDoing Gender.

Sometimes a little too much, crossing the boarders, crossing lines yet utterly wonderful. The double program of ReDoing Gender and The Woman House are certainly something worth experiencing. They will give rise to discussion and reflection” – 5 Sjerner
