Thu, 28 May 2026 at 7:30pm ABOUT THE NIGHT Rooted in humour, rhyme, and storytelling, the show explores the inner life of a young man who avoids the camera at all costs. What starts as social anxiety slowly opens out into an exploration of memory, identity, masculinity, and what we inherit, emotionally and digitally, from the generations before us.Moving between jokes, silence, and confession, the show uses wit as armour, masking fears shaped by childhood expectations, online visibility, and the pressure to be seen but not known. As the performance deepens, images and media shift from threat to tool, offering unexpected routes toward self-recognition and repair. General Admission \| 14+ Only Access Fee: £5.95
