'Wouldn't it be crazy if we kissed? What if we held hands, maybe? Had sex, perhaps? Do you think we'd look good together? Should we find out? What is love, actually?'

'Can We Do It On Camera?' is a twenty minute long theatre performance, a satirical taunt of modern Rom-Com movies and their sexist cliché tropes. 'Can We Do It On Camera?' deconstructs heterosexual norms surrounding gender and sexuality and asks: what if these movie characters don't want to be on camera anymore? Where could they possibly go to be in love and be loved in private?

On a darkened stage with pink lighting, four female presenting people stand with big smiles on their faces. From left to right, they create the letters: L, O, V, and E with their bodies. The first person has straight brunette mid-length hair in a half up half down style. has a white bedsheet over the back of her neck, a black dress with multicolour hearts, and black converse with white laces. The second person has long brunette hair. She wears a beige checkered flannel, a grey t-shirt, blue jeans, and white trainers. The third person is Nadia, who has long black and red curly hair. She is wearing a long black dress with pink flowers, pink fairy wings, a black tiara, red doc martens, and black tights. She holds a fairy wand in the shape of a star in her right hand. The last person has dark brown kinked curly hair in a pineapple style. She wears a purple fluffy jacket, a black top, black glittery flared trousers, and white trainers. In the background there are four chairs covered in white bedsheets.

'You don’t think I’m manic? A little bit pixie? Batshit insane?'

A closeup of Nadia, both hands up in loose fists, indicating exclamation. Their face displays desperate and passionate yelling as they look up to the ceiling.
