This performance is for the woman who has learned to swallow her anger. The Things That Make Me Angry is a solo dance performance exploring anger as an honest and necessary emotion. It asks what becomes possible when anger is acknowledged, expressed, and released rather than suppressed, and how it can also function as protection.

Through text, dance improvisation, and video, the work investigates personal experiences of anger and emotional restraint. It explores how unexpressed emotions manifest in the body, and how movement can become a safe and constructive way to release and recognize anger physically.

Video projections shift the performance between live event and visual installation. Spoken reflections on anger are layered with everyday imagery, rain on streets, passing cars, and a full moon, creating a cinematic atmosphere that reflects an inner emotional landscape.

Over time, the performer moves from representing anger to embodying it. The performance becomes an act of honesty and release.
