Under My Tounge is a takeover of Brunswick Mechanics Institute to celebrate Disability Pride Month.
Under My Tongue used anonymous submissions to explore the real-life experiences of Deaf and Disabled people. This work is brutally honest but fundamentally gentle. The work opens up conversations about fears, longing for connection and intimacy.
Under My Tongue is a movement-based performance with vibrational sound and no spoken word. The performance is 50 minutes long with no break.
There will be Auslan interpreters for pre-and post-show socialising Wednesday, 19 and Saturday, 22 July.
Four Deaf and Disabled artists reflect anonymous stories and themes of Under My Tounge.
Artists: Belinda Locke, Larissa MacFarlane, Andy Jackson, Rachael Guy, Elvin Lam, and Gemma Mahadeo.
