IN SHORT
Project Fools is a bold dance performance by Robin Nimanong (they/them), in collaboration with Ballroom artists Gato, Deion, and Sugah. In a technology-driven world, alter egos navigate the cyber grid, exploring gender fluidity and queer liberation. With no script and a touch of absurdism, they push the boundaries of identity. Visually and musically supported by Guenter Raler, and with fashion by Eva Marie-Louise, this interdisciplinary performance deconstructs the binary in unexpected ways.
You are welcome to enter this digital world where new routes reveal themselves. Here, society’s rebels and outcasts break free from within. Who are they, and what is their true nature in this tech-driven realm?
There is only one rule in this game: “Keep strutting, and when stopped… hit that reset button to start all over.”
Just remember that a true revolution has no script.
Project Fools is a bold research by Robin Nimanong, aka Lily, in collaboration with Ballroom artists Gato, Deion, and Sugah. This work delves into themes of gender fluidity and queer liberation, confronting a world of absurdism as norm.
This societal introspection is taken into the world of Project Fools with a lighthearted touch, and extreme care. Watch as these alter egos navigate through this cyber-grid, embodying a dynamic, interdisciplinary exploration of queerness. In collaboration with Guenter Raler for the visuals and music. And with Eva Marie-Louise for fashion. Together we will unravel beyond the binary in unexpected forms.
