Triple Threat
Lucy McCormick (UK)
Get ready for a radical take on the New Testament… Post-Popular Prodigy Lucy McCormick presents a trash-punk morality play made for the modern world. Lucy plays all the main roles in this subversive spin on the life of Jesus, which covers everything from the Immaculate Conception to the Resurrection, and she’s assisted by her Girl Squad dancers. Together, they work through the story using power ballads, dance routines and performance art. With Triple Threat, Lucy attempts to reconnect with her own conscience by framing this most sacred of tales through her own modern-day reference points. Absurd, enthusiastic, transgressive and hilarious, this is revisionism at its best.
McCormick launches an all-out attack on your assumptions about femininity, pop culture and the Christian story… fantastically entertaining. —The Guardian
Content note: Includes strobe lights and self-penetration.
