How to be a Man

How to be a man is a light-hearted solo show that explores the crisis of masculinity, male privilege and gender identity.

The theme of masculinity is explored from a queer perspective, examining the causes and reactions to the crisis of masculinity, how in a world built around patriarchy both men and women have suffered. The work is an argument for feminism and a call for gender equality. It challenges men to own up to their inherited privilege and fight the urge to hold on to it.
