MOUTHPIECE follows one woman, for one day, as she tries to find her voice. Two performers express the inner conflict that exists within a modern woman’s head: the push and the pull, the past and the present, the progress and the regression. Interweaving a cappella harmony, dissonance, text and physicality, MOUTHPIECE is a harrowing, humorous, and heart-wrenching journey into the female psyche.
WINNER OF TWO 2015 DORA MAVOR MOORE AWARDS FOR OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE BY AN ENSEMBLE, OUTSTANDING SOUND DESIGN/COMPOSITION
Quote Unquote Collective is a Toronto-based multi-disciplinary performance company that aims to work outside the boundaries of tradition and expectation. Engaging with urgent social and political themes, the company is founded on the firm belief that art and performance are tools to provoke conversation and change. Co-founders Amy Nostbakken and Norah Sadava, who both have a strong background in physical theatre and music, have joined forces to produce work in a variety of genres and disciplines as a means to make new, experimental, and provocative performance work that ignites conversation within the community and the world at large. Defying conventions of style and form, the collective is built on the idea that individual ideas demand to be expressed through different forms, and should be expressed by whatever means necessary. www.quoteunquotecollective.com
