Legendary Children and We

Legendary Children is the latest work by Steamroller Dance Company that explores and explodes contemporary notions of queerness. Set on the penultimate disco dance floor, Legendary Children explores Queer lineage both historical and personal using recorded interviews that are interwoven throughout the performance. Dances that explore the essentiality of queerness set to the music of contemporary queer artists such as Matmos, Bright Light, Bright Light and Jimmy Somerville bump up against the interviews to look at what, if any are the differences between queer bodies and straight bodies and at the body as a site of queer pleasure, queer sorrow and queer resistance.
