Haircuts by 5th graders

From the Fusebox website, "Haircuts by Children is a performance about wild haircuts, power and trust. We challenge our audience and viewers to set their vanity aside, relinquish control, and trust that a 10-year-old has the creative ability, dexterity and responsibility to command a sharp pair of scissors."  This performance project is brought to you by the Canadian group Mamalian Diving Reflex, who explain the ideas and theory behind this multi-site project in the video below.

Absolutely. If you're to let a 5th grader cut your hair, you'd definitely need a great deal of trust to that kid. But hey, these are talented kids so there's no need to worry --- I guess.
