Nora Goes 2 Space, Motherfuck*r!
Part outer space drag show, part Norwegian kitchen sink drama, and part American karaoke opera, Nora Goes 2 Space, Motherfuck*r! is a blistering examination of the housewife and her role in the home yesterday and tomorrow, seen through the eyes of Nora Helmer in Henrik Ibsens A Dolls House, and via a contemporary queer critique of the seminal feminist texts The Second Sex by Simone de Beauvoir and The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan. By irreverently deconstructing Ibsens play into a series of songs, monologues, and vignettes modeled after a series of 1950s housewife etiquette films that were actually shown in cinemas as feminist propaganda Nora Goes 2 Space, Motherfuck*r! aims itself towards the future by looking at where the feminist movement began, celebrating past progresses and triumphs, and by being searingly truthful about how far we have to go before were all equal.
