Synopsis

When Patrick is eight years old, his absent father returns unexpectedly for a brief but memorable encounter. Years later – recalling that meeting, and the revelations that followed – Patrick traces the events of his father’s life, laying bare a journey of grandiose plans, aching disappointments, and audacious self-delusion.

Man Alive Theatre’s debut production is a heart-breaking and hilarious play about fathers and sons, the gifts and burdens of inheritance, and the unfathomable puzzle of human relationships.

A Post Show Q and A follows this performance to aid Man Alive Theatre's professional development.
