Fifty years after Laura Mulvey first wrote about the ‘male gaze’, not only do damaging gender archetypes bafflingly still exist, in some quarters they remain idealised.
Incels covertly indoctrinate children on the web; POTUS has a blind eye turned, is let off the legal hook, and gets borderline deified; Big Tech rolls back commitments to equality; #metoo feels like a distant memory. As misogyny and intolerance of difference rise, Spook The Horses provocatively appraises the mythology of a hardline binary masculine-feminine divide, leaning into the fiction before deconstructing it, in a devised ensemble performance which salutes ongoing feminist struggles and gender non-conforming activism. Expect a collision of uncomfortable imagery, verbatim text, allyship, sly humour and righteous anger.
