The Leg is an ensemble-based physical theatre performance from notAmuse Theater that uses Butoh, Bouffon and Puppetry to explore the links between spirituality, pain, pleasure and politics. Drawing from the writings of Foucault and Preciado, this devised hybrid movement piece combines laughter and danger to explore the idea that we are all political fiction alive. The Leg is a devised dance theater piece conceived by Sophie Amieva & Katerina Marcelja and directed by Sophie Amieva.
