Iris Bell and Emma Grave (Id Est) — Mania

UnTaPped 2026:
Fri 15 May 2026 and Sat 16 May 2026

Mania is an informed mess that is quietly loud with a calm chaos. Iris knows. Emma knows. She knows. They know. We know. You know?

There is twenty-eight minutes counting down on the clock, two young women on stage ready to shred, prepare, release, and grow. Exploring cycles, within us and surrounding us. Cycles are shared, connecting us internally and externally. 28 days for the moon to orbit earth, 28 days of a menstrual cycle. Our cycles create who we are. Cycles can change with time but for now we would like to keep ours.

And we assure you that Mania will fall and rise again.
