Third Nature is an opulent dance work exploring the wildness of gender and the weirdness of human sexuality. In a world where South Asia was never colonised and there were no colonial sanctions on gender and sexuality, two people delight in their own bodies. A sensuous, riotous work of lavish beauty and playful disarray by Raina Peterson and Govind Pillai. Classical Indian dancers Raina Peterson and Govind Pillai ('In Plain Sanskrit', 'Bent Bollywood') rampage through the jasmine and jump on their big gay marriage bed. A sensuous, riotous work of lavish beauty and playful disarray.
