EXPRESS YOURSELF
Created by Sean O'Neill and Liz Peterson
In collaboration with Ame Henderson
In this rigorous and inventive piece about the dynamics of performance, performer Liz Peterson and director Sean O’Neill explore the limits of media and form. Weaving personal confessions, dance, synchronized video, and a pop sensibility, Express Yourself is a stylized depiction of a performance in progress. The show is anchored by a virtuosic performance by Peterson, who navigates the ever-shifting boundaries of the work with disarming vulnerability, humour, and charm.
