A ONE-MAN show about constructed fear is coming to the Lyric Theatre in Bridport.
(F.E.A.R.) is a brave, revealing and at times hilarious one-man tour of early childhood memories to midlife identity crisis delivered directly to the audience in a revealing and close-up manner. It asks directly if the world want us to feel safe.
It will be performed on Wednesday October 10 and Thursday, October 11
In this life story, that encapsulates early childhood memories and public information films, a clear and ever more fevered narrative unearths the fears of a middle-aged man plagued with the news of Islamic State attacks, the revelations of Edward Snowden, the rise of UKIP and of a growing concern of physical decay.
Described as 'a powerful blast of theatre', (F.E.A.R.) allows the audience to witness the vulnerability of a solo male performer in full confessional mode. Expect a rollercoaster of dark humour and powerful storytelling that becomes ever more fevered and uneasy when discussing the uncertainties of Brexit, state security and dysfunctional ageing.
(F.E.A.R) comes from theatre company Mr and Mrs Clark following up their Amnesty International award nominated show Smash It Up with another timely piece of theatre
