She No Princess, He No Hero - Tilt Festival
- see all dates
Leïli and Nils are in the same class. Leïli likes to hunt, dress like boys, and gel her short hair. Nils likes to wear his hair long, shows his emotions, and is not physically strong. Neither conforms to gendered roles that society dictates. Told through the voices of Leïli and Nils, this intimate and poignant theater piece transports the audience into the mind of young boys and girls confronting the cultural stereotypes imposed on them as they come of age.
Commissioned in English by Tilt and produced with a new cast of American actors, She No Princess, He No Hero is performed in classroom-sized venues for small audiences. The audience is split into two groups, with each one hearing from either Leïli or Nils. At intermission, the groups switch rooms and hear from the second character. Together, they come to understand that they don’t need to be a princess or a hero; they can just be themselves.
