Shoot Me
A dance-theater monodrama and interactive trash

After conquering the most important stages in Israel and abroad, as a dancer with rare qualities and as a multidisciplinary artist, in summer 2007 Oryan Yohanan found herself competing as a finalist in the reality TV show "Move It Israel" she decided to participate on.

Yohanan has processed this experience in the entertainment world, and created a "reality-show star guide" in which she teaches the viewers how to stand tall while being humiliated, how to remain sexy even when exhausted, how to always smile, especially through the pain, and how to fly high with two chopped wings.

Shoot Me investigates the sadistic/masochistic elements in the relationship between the artist and the love of the audience, while dealing with the struggles women face in the entertainment world and in society in general. She presents a profound observation on the double standard that dictates women’s lives – objectification and censorship, glorification and exclusion.

An interactive-attractive piece in which the artist allegedly performs an affirmative action by addressing the audience in the feminine linguistic form while actually, this affirmative action receives a new meaning.

"Shoot Me is a monodrama of theatrical dance, humorous yet disturbing, discomforting but at the same time mesmerizing."

As part of the show the audience is invited to take a selfie with the star and upload it to Shoot Me Instagram page
