Get Free uses performance, dance, song, design, and ritual to question social expectations about how gender and sexuality are expressed. It unpacks the labels that artists have been given and how this has affected their sexuality. They challenge the audience to question why they have accepted certain cultural notions/definitions of gender and sex and how that influences their perception of themselves. Get Free invited the audience to let go of these expectations and be free.
