CHICKS*: MASTEKTOMIE. Ein bittersüßes Abschiedslied
© Lena Ures
Oil our scars, fill our bathtub with tears, let's celebrate our lust for life and get dressed up. Welcome to the ceremonial farewell ritual of my breasts, to a bittersweet new beginning!
In MASTECTOMY. a bittersweet farewell song, CHICKS* dedicate themselves to letting go of breasts and invite the audience to a bittersweet, interactive concert performance. They accompany Marietheres Jesse in the performance as she says goodbye to her own breasts. Together, CHICKS* develop a solemn, queer and tearful farewell ritual and an evening of discourse on the connections between gender, health and identity. Which different perspectives and experiences with mastectomies come together in our queer community, can give us support and care for each other? In a participatory performance format, the three performers invite the audience to accompany this process and be part of their temporary care community. Loss, the pain of parting and the excitement of welcoming the changed body, the new beginning, can coexist here in all their ambivalence. Both very personal experiences with breasts and the letting go of them, as well as cultural-historical and socio-political debates about health, gender, transitions, farewell and mourning culture are inscribed in the musical performance. It will be intimate, soft, challenging - and it will be cared for.
