I’ll show you mine, if you show me yours.
FLAPS Retouched is the second cumming of the sell-out 2016 season of FLAPS, a visceral, honest, celebratory exploration of all things VAGINA. After being nominated for four awards and winning Most Innovative Set at the Auckland Theatre Awards, Bits and Pieces Ensemble’s FLAPS are back and are Retouched.
The piece feels and pokes its way around the unashamed vagina-laden experience. Exploring hidden truths and relationships, celebrating difference and acceptance. FLAPS Retouched offers a myriad of styles and genres throughout the journey of over 40 vignettes.
FLAPS Retouched welcomes director Torum Heng (Go Girls, Keep Out Of My Box, Filthy Rich) to lead the cast of seven emerging female artists. An exciting addition, Heng has already made waves as an actor and writer in both New Zealand and Edinburgh.
FLAPS Retouched is produced by Bits and Pieces Ensemble, a company founded in 2015 by The Actors’ Program graduates Emily Campbell and Brie Hill; and UNITEC graduate Alice Kirker. The Ensemble aims to provide a platform for female practitioners in the NZ theatre industry and to cultivate an ethos of collaboration among established and emerging female creatives.
“Such a personal, fresh and warm experience from a diverse group of women exploring beautifully taboo topics with great heart and humour” – Sara Wiseman (actor – A Place To Call Home, Rake)
“FLAPS is a rebellion, a celebration, a call-to-arms, a grab at your heart, a sigh of grief and relief” – Amanda Billing (actor – Shortland Street, Boys Will Be Boys, The Book of Everything)
