allowed|aloud is the culmination of two years of research and continued examination into the normalized animalization of women through literature, everyday dialog, and the preconceptions that follow. While asking questions about choice, survival, and rebellion, we investigate historical waves of feminism in our country: the reactive elements, the cyclical elements, and investigate how women have taken to resolving the misogyny and internalized sexism, while examining personal protest. How do women adjust, re-adjust, break the mold, and forge ahead under vexatious situations? We bury, cover, shelter, fix, secure, rebel, riot, and repeat.

Ticket buyers will be emailed a link to website and film before their designated performance time. Appropriate for all ages.

Britt Fishel and Artists is a collaborative, project-based company, presenting both live performances and dance films, in the Philadelphia community and beyond. Through research and performance, we aim to foster a better assimilation of the human experience, to democratize and normalize socioeconomic, political, and identity driven conversations that are both diverse and inclusive through intersectionality. Through the lens of a feminist perspective, we address our past, to better understand our present, to change our future.
