The Wall between US and them can transform in a second. When are you
on which side of the Wall? When do you straddle it? self-perceptions, social
perceptions, chosen, imposed, conformity, beauty. The performance group
HEPHAESTUS is joined by the three-woman band, SECRET SYNTHI, to bounce from
one side of the wall to the other. Sexuality, Disability, Ethnicity, Age,
Gender. Why do women shave their legs?
