Immigrant Ball is a participatory performance, which explores migration, exclusion and discrimination. Immigrant artist performers invite the audience to the extravagantly DIY Ball, employing choreographed debauchery. Misbehaving, the Immigrants take over the territory; claiming their place, ready to renew and re-imagine the world through their own lenz, reversing the dominant cultural narrative in the process.
