Choreographed by Satu Herrala in collaboration with Maija Mustonen and the group.
In the piece JUST Queens Go Go Dance Group ‘Kuumat Putket’ is approaching the female clichés from around the corner in a form of a drag show. We brought onstage a show in which the categories of gender and performance slide sideways. Queens, warriors, icy divas and odd creatures enter the stage and shine bright.
