      Faceless Hair Cry is a romantic duet danced solo. A transformation between temporary bodies using images of female biology, fertility, pollination and the act of ritual. Unusually shaped to attract pollinators. A cyclical journey from flora to fauna, to female form, in an artificial setting. Real and fake, nature and the artificial, and illusion versus allusion. Faceless Hair Cry is a redeveloped contemporary dance work created by Sofia McIntyre with compelling soundscape created by Paloma Schneideman. 

      Following on from the highly successful premiere in Tempo Dance Festival's Super Moon, Sofia has bought this work back to life for the Auckland Fringe 2020. 

      Sofia McIntyre is a 2011 graduate of UNITEC’s Performing and Screen Arts degree majoring in Contemporary Dance. She is a regular dancer with Mary-Jane O’Reilly’s neo-burlesque show ‘In Flagrante’, which has seen her perform in the 2013 Edinburgh Fringe and numerous shows both in New Zealand and overseas. Sofia has danced and worked collaboratively with choreographers since leaving UNITEC but this is her first time creating a full length solo show.


      Please arrive 15 minutes before show start time. Latecomers admitted into the theatre at Basement's discretion - no refunds will be given.

      $15 and $20 Basement Mates tickets available for this event. Find out more about Basement Mates here.
