hey babes 🤍 we got an invitation from our friends at 🦜💜🦋

Steven Cohens performance Bo***ir is in Studio Bergen February 10th and 11th, and it is half film, half installation. Steven Cohen describes himself as a gay, Jewish, white, South African man, and this last piece has recently been performed at Centre Pompidou in Paris. In his latest piece he plays host to audiences from within his bedroom. Not any bedroom, but an imperialistic bo***ir, a chapel or refuge in which he gathers up his memories of the past, his and ours of the last century, gruesome though they may be.

The performance will be performed three times each evening, and we can offer a special reduced price by using the promo code bo***ir on https://teatergarasjen.ticketco.events/no/nb/e/bo***irstevencohen.

can’t wait to be dancing with you in Stavanger Camping 🔥

On the dance floor you will also find Abra ka Deborah, with her ass hanging out, and her glistening oral-b white teeth, is ready to dance you long into the night. She debuted at a jazz bar and now wanders the club camping sites, desperate to find her equal. Abra ka Deborah likes long walks on the beach with her dog, rap music and to remind you that you all are amazing and powerful!

on the dance floor you will also find Phillip Deear. He is a man who tries to live honorably. He is the heir of Lord Deear, who is the proud owner of a hundred acres of land. A bright future indeed, if it weren't for the fact that all that land doesn't mean a thing to him. Cause (he believes) his true calling is to be a poet.

hey babes 🌿
We are excited to welcome OC*****SY PRIME feat. VJ Lamamama to Stavanger – two up-and-coming gems from Bergen!

OC*****SY PRIME oozes experimental feministic pop rap. Being just as vulgar in her lyrics as her male colleague rappers, but refusing to express violence or misogyny. Instead, she verbalises topics such as ma********on, s*xual transmitted diseases, s*xual attraction, and other issues that can be seen as taboo in womanhood. Joining OC*****SY PRIME (Lise Ulvedahl Carlsen) is the mesmerizing VJ Lamamamma (Mina Paasche).

Get ready for a unique audiovisual performance featuring live audio reactive video collages mapping the room into a hot sensory immersive experience. What a feast for the body!
