GET IT OFF YOUR CHEST, PLUCK IT FROM HER BREAST

Originally conceived of and performed at Püss Füst 2010, Get It Off Your Chest, Pluck It From Your Breast is an interactive performance that invites participants to explore notions of shame and the body.

Get It Off Your Chest is a collaboration between Hannah Brancato, Kendra Hebel, and Sarah Tooley.

The piece was a part of Transmodern Festival's Pedestrian Services Exquisite, the International Drag King Extravaganza 2010, and the 14 k Cabaret in fall 2010.
