I am LGB Textbook

Notes

Textbook from the performance / social experiment. The audience (a.k.a participants) underwent several stages of assessments to decide who remained in the experiment, and who was liberated from it. By the end, only one participant was crowned “LGB”. Presented during the Singapore International Festival of Arts 2016.
