These spirits are called Anitos.Co-Created by the multi-talented Justin Talplacido Shoulder (The Glitter Militia, Club Ate), ANITO combines collective craft, puppetry, dance and experimental electronic music to reimagine these myths and stories for the now. It’s a work rooted in Sydney’s underground queer and diasporic club scenes.The collective behind ANITO create a “Queer Filipino Future Folkloric space of storytelling” that centres the importance of nature spirits, intuiting with them as guides towards imagining possible parallel futures.The ensemble transform into animal-human-plant-machine hybrids. In this world of sheer terror and tremendous beauty, they interrogate colonial wrongdoings and queer ancestral mythologies.Presented by Auckland Pride in partnership with Q Theatre and Auckland Live.Creative Team:Directed, Performed and Co-conceived by Justin Talplacido ShoulderPerformer and co-generator Eugene ChoiPerformer, Mentor and Outside (Inside) Eye Victoria HuntProduction Design by Matthew Stegh and J.
