Review of 'Batty Bwoy' at Bora Bora: I do like the clinging juice from Harald Beharie's gender, when he reached for my hand and I gently embraced his open palm and long fingers, to reach the connection to the performer from Norway with the juice of my own. You know, 'Batty Bwoy' is a word from Patois, a Jamaican expression that does not sincerely embrace the gay sexuality. In fact not. But in the dance performance of Harald Beharie at Bora Bora in Aarhus, the derogatory term is reframed in a more positive view on gay sexuality. And in fact, reframing the sexuality we all share. A performance rated at 5 stars. That is, if you can distinguish art from the male body parts like penis, scrotum and anus. Enjoy.

So, this dance performance 'Batty Bwoy' is a story of sexual transformation. You will enjoy it, no matter what sexuality you're into. Or you might tremble with fear, as the performer dissolves the fourth wall, drawing the audience - seated raw and close on the floor - into the juice of life, where his private member bathes in the generous nectar of love, water, and lubricants. The character on stage do not enjoy being 'Batty Bwoy'. He had to swallow all too much lubricant, seed and water. He had to show his anus to everyone, trying to find someone to make love to. He struggled with the long hair - the role as 'Batty Bwoy'. Tries to find an escape from cultural defined roles, and reaching for an embracement with himself, and his sexuality. Hang on. He finds the way out. Ever since I lived as a prostitute, I've enjoyed the question of sexuality: 'Why do I do, what I do, and do I like doing, what I do? Well, you get the drift. English is not my language. The body is. So when Harald Beharie transforms from self hate, into the next step - which is reaching out - I am game. He wants to grab the hand of someone. I share him mine, all wet and juicy. And then he dances like a crazy and is engulfed in the provocative kind of sexual expression. And after that, he finds his real sexuality. And after that, what happens then? When you have transformed into to your true sexuality? I ain't telling you. Go to the performance and see for yourself. This massive force of sexuality. Oh no. Like a tsunami, or even stronger. You know. Thank you very much, Harald Beharie, and thanks to Bora Bora for opening the space for 'Batty Bwoy'. Batty BwoyYou'll se the juice of life
Sexuality is a tsunami
