The emotional commitment and bravery to speak and discuss individual doubts of youth who are confronted with the gaze of the adults are the cornerstones of the performance. The storytelling of the show is built upon a bonded group of young dancers who documented and dug into archives of their personal experience on power relations, LGBTQ+ developing identities, sexual harassment, and power abuse towards them, that urge the belonging to The Clique, and the necessity to share. The audience is invited to revisit vibrant teen-hood, through the lens of the spectator, a parent, a teacher, and adecision-maker, and to reflect on the boundaries of power in interpersonal and intergenerational relationships. The performance in Lithuania in2022 was awarded as the Best Dance Piece of the Year for teenagers (2021) and nominated as the best music sound composition of the year 2021.
