I Am Johnny
Tessa Parr
Boys, are you shirkin for a gherkin? Attempting openness while navigating the pressures of his troubled masculinity, Johnny finds himself off-piste in the world of spoken-word poetry. I AM JOHNNY is an unsettlingly funny, absurd and politically sharp solo performance that dives head-first into fragile power dynamics, performative masculinity and ownership of the female body. Blending surreal humour with piercing insight, this is a hilarious, raw and unforgettable interrogation of gender, class and vulnerability.
Audience participation, Contains distressing or potentially triggering themes, Scenes of violence, Strong language/swearing
Age category: 16+
