Bijuriya

Gabriel Dharmoo’s Bijuriya code-switches between drag, song, and sound as it navigates its creator’s dual personas. Through an exuberant medley of drag and humour, as well as an eclectic array of musical genres — ranging from original pop tunes to experimental soundscapes and Bollywood soundtracks — this performance playfully examines the role of vocality in self-expression, utilizing song, speech, and lip-syncing as tools for exploring cultural identity.

Gabriel and Bijuriya’s self-reflexive dialogue offers profound insight into the fluidity of human experience.
