Rage

The Burlesque Society

Content Warning: Women dancing in lingerie

Rage is a piece inspired by the vast ways rage and anger manifest: hot, calculating, cold. Choreographed by Karma O’Reilly, the piece has moments that are slow and precise, juxtaposed with moments that are wild and uncontrolled. This dance is a passion project and a love letter to female rage and sexuality.

Karma O’Reilly, Madison Lulham, Lacey McLune, and Lydia Van Welderen dance to ‘RAGE’ by Samantha Margaret. The performance was recorded and photographed by artist Heidi (known as @hi._.capturing online) through the Burlesque Society.
