“…sexual cabaret obliterating gender borders...
Sardonic, revealing and with a continual wink of the eye.“
Mannheimer Morgen, 11 Feb 2009

“…Two female artists… are taking a look at the subject Sex, with direct and explicit language... both with shaved heads, masculine and at the same time very feminine, no set identity, androgynous sex appeal, this is uncommon. ...
Bridge Markland is calling a spade a spade, when she walks the borders of pornography, erotics, profligate art and wet vocabulary…
Saxophone player Nikola Lutz accompanies these explicit lyrics with … elegant harmonies, silent buzzing and croaky guttural sounds. … she musically illustrates Bridge Marklands erotic readings and gender transformations and dances …“

Bridge Markland the Berlin dance-theatre-cabaret-performance-artist is a virtuoso of roleplay and transformation. A chameleon which throws herself into many extremes, but isn’t merely limited to one of them. She is an artist who effortlessly crosses all boundaries between sub- and high-culture, dance, theatre, performance, cabaret and erotic-art. Her speciality are transgender-performances in which the audience can experience the change of woman to man (or vice versa). There is an erotic aura around her in all roles and genders. She has female and male sex-appeal far away from hetero- or homosexual limits and all inscribed identities. Other focuses are: classic interpretations in collage with popular music, biographic performances, grotesque-dance/dance-improvisation, walk acts, silent-movies, writing, readings…
Bridge Markland has 6 full evening shows and 17 short performances in her solo repertoire. For many years she has been a thrill to her audiences performing on stages in Europe, USA and Australia.
