IT’S A GAME
It’s a Game” is a physical theatre piece created by R.A.W. collective. In the piece, three performers invite the spectators to play with them. As their relationship evolves, they constantly test the audience’s expectations and make them a central part of the piece. Through the game, the three players reveal their rawest selves to the public but also to each other.
With this work, Ella, Laure and Minna are exploring sorority as a creative practice. They treat their friendship seriously through humour and empathy, supporting each other in challenges and exhaustion. They imagine “It’s a Game” as a tale of empowerement through solidarity.

R.A.W. COLLECTIVE
R.A.W. Collective is a performer-led ensemble created by Ella Posti, Laure Dubanet and Mina Clair. We met each other while studying at our Master in Dance Performance at London Contemporary Dance School, became friends, and bonded over our dance interests and artistic values. Within R.AW. Collective we want to explore the possibilities of the body through movement, voice and storytelling, and create meaningful and intimate experiences between us and the audience. When working together, we like to get inspired by our own lives. As a trio of women, we delve into the meaning of sorority and attempt to explore our uninhibited thoughts and emotions together. Through collaboration, we strive to build a safe and empowering space that allows us to show our vulnerability and strength as the central point of our performance.
