Striptease by Pere Faura

“Although we don’t budge from our seats, we come out of Striptease feeling totally undressed
and exposed… loudly applauding his assault on our reserve.’ Springback

Tongue firmly in cheek, Spanish choreographer Pere Faura gets intimate with his audience in this mischievous show about the theatrical art of undressing.

What do you think you’ll see at a show called Striptease?  Part performance, part lecture, Faura plays with our expectations and perceptions in this witty and provocative exposé of the mechanisms of desire and seduction. Cleverly mixing dance, theatre and video elements he delves into the relationship between the performer and the spectator, with the help of a star turn by Demi Moore.

What makes a good striptease? Proximity or inaccessibility, reality or fantasy? Well, that all depends on what you are looking for.
