Tough girls and pretty boys living life in the margins, dreaming about being at the centre. This bespoke extract from the full-length production explores the transformative power of beauty, created out of whatever is on the bedroom floor. Bringing us into a space of fluid identity, the dancers experiment, seduce and philosophise through their bodies, clothing and ideas. Velvet Petal is inspired by the life-cycle of the monarch butterfly and Robert Mapplethorpe's polaroids and is set to a fresh dance punk score.
