This ain’t no pussy show… by Kate Harman & Toby Angus

Ever wondered if patriarchy was a pyramid scheme for men, too? Kate has and she ain't pussying around; she has a boy to raise and he has questions.

Why are you shouting?
Am I really toxic?
How come you can say dick but I can’t say pussy?

She has questions, too.

Kate, a dancer and a mother, together with Toby, a 14-year-old skater, deep-dive into our world right now. Using text, movement, skateboarding, map-making and rap music, they discuss privilege and patriarchy, feminism and masculinity, and reveal everything – faults and all. They make space for each other in a poetic and personal evocation of the relationship between mother and son.

It’s a messy, wild, unpredictable, and sometimes foolish terrain that doesn't have a clear ending. This is their map, a landscape of danger and misunderstanding, as they turn this black and white world into a sea of grey.
