Phitthaya Phaefuang ( Sun ) (NO/TH)
Realness: Luk Kreung
28+29 Oktober @ 20.00 (dørene åpner @ 19.00)
«Luk kreung» var lenge en nedsettende betegnelse på noen som var født
halvt thai og halvt annet etnisitet. I denne forestillingen legemliggjører Sun
sin mors historie som sexarbeider i Thailand, også kalt ” wife for rent “. Det er en scenekunst forestilling om kjønnsopptreden som overlevelse og sexism i Thai binære samfunn, kategoriene body og sex sirens fra LGBTQIA+ ballroom kulturen, dharmapraksis og gående meditasjon.
Om det å ha dyp forståelse, dyp innsikt i lidelsens og medfølelsens natur. Forestillingen utforsker det å gå utover det mannlige og kvinnelige kjønn.

“Luk kreung” was for a long time a derogatory term for someone who was born half Thai and half other ethnicity. In this performance Sun embodies his mother’s story as a sex worker in Thailand, also called “wife for rent”. It is a performing arts performance about gender performance as survival
and sexism in Thai binary society, the categories body and sex sirens from the LGBTQIA+ ballroom culture, dharma practice and walking meditation. About having deep understanding, deep insight into the nature of suffering and compassion. The performance explores going beyond the male and female gender.
