ROSANA CADE<br />

MY BIG SISTER TAUGHT ME<br />

THIS LAPDANCE<br />

Open your legs. Put your<br />

hands by your side. No<br />

touching.<br />

Inside a small red lit booth<br />

Rosana Cade performs<br />

the lap dance their older<br />

sister used to perform<br />

professionally. The<br />

intimate exchange<br />

between performer and<br />

audience member sets<br />

up a complex web of<br />

contradictory visual axes.<br />

Through the repetition of<br />

the dance, the<br />

manipulation of our gaze,<br />

and the use of interview<br />

excerpts, a unique feminist<br />

dialogue between two<br />

siblings is revealed.<br />

“Brave, clever,<br />

provocative.”<br />

– The Herald<br />

Performed for 1<br />

audience member at a<br />

time<br />

20 minutes<br />

Durational for maximum<br />

4 hours per day<br />

3 people on the road<br />
