BITCH New York Performances

BITCH takes a loaded piece of English slang and treats it as subject matter rather than throwaway insult. The work tracks how the term has shifted across gender, music, and subcultures, and how it has been used to police behavior as much as to describe it. Presented as a live event at Rough Trade NYC within the city’s long tradition of language-as-performance, it situates pop and rock alongside critique. Its sharpest point is simple: a common word can still carry structural harm.
