by Craig Manson

Part of Dance International Glasgow
exploring the mainstream exploitation of LGBTQIA+ identities for capitalist gain.
Lighting+Set design by Megahertz
Two gay men pose in a photo studio as their simultaneous bewilderment and enthusiasm for what they’re doing gives way to a growing physical dialogue. In a cheeky dissection of modern gay male identity and capitalism, they flow from one statuesque image to another; they sigh and pout and flirt; they dance to gay anthems, make love to corporate objects, and attempt to give you exactly what you want. But who is it all really for?
Combining choreography by Craig Manson and design by award-winning scenographers MHz, GAYBOYS is a fun and exhilarating new show premiering as a live performance at Dance International Glasgow.
