Morphing between friends, lovers, allies and (toxic?) exes, Shirley & Cajsa invites you to enter their golden Dyke Camp-universe. In this humorous piece inspired by cabaret format, dykey symbols are exaggerated and used as the duo assist each other in exploring their horny, dangerous, soft and complicated sides.  

You are invited to sit back, giggle, mouth barf and vibrate together. 

Dykes - this one is especially 4 you! (and the rest, we would love to see you there to support and admire us)!

Shirley Harthey Ubilla

Shirley Harthey Ubilla (b.1986) is a Chilean-Swedish performer and choreographer based in Estocolmo. Their choreographic work focuses on dyke desires, latinidad, warping structures of power, and queer realness. As a nonbinary butch dyke of color, they are highly aware of the fact that bodies matter, and this is something that drives all of their artistic work. 

 

Abjection, exaggeration, erotica, and humor are cornerstones found in their work. Shirley's interest in exploring the in-between state; when something is on the verge of being transformed into something else, is ongoing. They believe that this space has the potential to make us question what boundaries are and what happens when they are about to dissolve. A common thread in their work has been to seek and develop practices that speak of resistance with emancipatory possibilities. They constantly aim to decolonize gender. Shirley strongly believes that making art is a fragile, fierce, and badass way of figuring out how to live in the world!

Cajsa Godée

Cajsa Godée (she/they) is a swedish dancer and choreographer who works between Berlin and Stockholm. Cajsa gravitates towards exploring themes around sexuality from a queer experience. She approaches it with a touch of humor and often in an intimate setting with room for spontaneity in the meeting between herself and the audience. Cajsa has worked as a freelance dancer and choreographer for 15 years both making her own work and participating in other choreographers' work. She enjoys working in groups where many different experiences come together and converse.

Cajsa is one of the founding members of the dance and performance group JUCK (Thrust) that aims to expose structures of power through the movement on thrusting. JUCK has performed in venues such as Dansens Hus (Stockholm), Sophiensaele (Berlin) and GAM (Santiago) among many others. In 2019 she completed her Bachelor in Dance, Context and Choreography at The University of Art in Berlin. Cajsas’ latest piece Lez Dance - Dyke Camp, was created together with their long time creative partner Shirley Harthey Ubilla and is premiering in April 2024.
