good fit Bowery, Clark and VU (if you look at the other Bowery vids you'll see in one he's wearing the costume here saying he just wore it in Clark's "Because We Must") - I love the Clark stuff with the Fall - good expression of the "new form of beauty" as the Virgin Prunes coined it so succinctly back in the day- we are the other people - you're the other people too.

According to the Electronic Arts Intermix: Because We Must
Charles Atlas. 1989
In Because We Must, Atlas continued his collaboration with British choreographer Michael Clark, the enfant terrible of the dance world in the 1980s. Based on an original stage production at Sadlers' Wells Theatre in London, this is an ironic, irreverent work that is as entertaining as it is provocative.

Michael Clark Dance Group, from the film Because We Must, 1989. Leigh Bowery costumes. But ... what happened to the vocals???

good attempts from all but Leigh Bowery designed the costumes and Michael Clark choreographed the dance.
