A non-linear narrative spun by its emotional axis risks not engaging some audience members with more substance. But, whatever the outcome, He/r doesn’t shirk away from its sensitive nature. The production centres on the unfettered psychology of queer women, coming full bloom through organic emotions instead of a clear cut socio-political takeaway. Although teetering toward overly stimulating and elusive, He/r mediates friendship with a raw, mesmerising quality.
