FEMALE POWER IN A WORLD OF HARD WOOD AND BIG BALLS

After exploring the modern man's identity in "M.I.S. - All Night Long," it's now the women who take center stage! But how does the modern woman fits into a world of hard wood and big balls?

In K.I.S.S., DON GNU aims to explore what happens when women step into a world created by men. What is it like for women to be expected to act like men? And is it possible for them to find their own expression in world of raw physicality, ego battles, and cheesy dad humor? Will the plank fit or is the air coming out of the balloon?

Get ready for a powerful performance filled with quirky stunts and mental courage as the three female performers step out of their comfort zones to take on DON GNU’s testosterone-fueled action universe.

K.I.S.S. is a celebration for everyone who wishes to celebrates the right to be oneself – genuine, unfiltered, and powerful in its imperfection – all night long!

"Physically, it is impressive what the three female dancers in 'K.I.S.S.' are capable of. Several times, they perform movements that seem physically impossible"
