This show is based on the story of French surrealists Claude Cahun and Marcel Moore – two female artists in a male-dominated world- and their resistance campaign against the Nazis in occupied Jersey. Told through puppetry, dance, video projections and words, the piece explores our ideas of identity and the commitment between art and socio-political change.

The play opened in London at the Blue Elephant in 2009. Tour: Imatra International Festival (Finland) and International Puppet Festival, Bilbao (Spain).
