Do You Think They Saw Us is a piece inspired by the surrealist movement including Dada poetry, Surrealist Manifesto by André Breton and the paintings of René Magritte. The performance explores women’s relationships to risk and the human need to be entertained.
Indra Wilson, Maria J. Monteiro, Anni Suvanto and Holly Worton take on the roles of doppelgänger hazard safety people Larry, Harry, Garry and Barry. Seeking safety and human connection with the world, the group of 4 attempts to make the stage and audience as safe as possible for us all.
All they can do is wait for a world without risk or step on the wild side. Which one will it be?
