Who’s your daddy?

The whole notion of fatherhood is explored by Jonathan Brown in his one-man show, The Father Monologues, which is at The Barnfield Theatre, Exeter, on April 26 and 27.

He told us here at the People’s Republic (via his website of course), that he wanted to ‘write, and perform, a series of plays so involving that even the most unemotional bastard would stir in his (or her) parental bath water.’ So you know you’re in for a rollercoaster ride.

In two parts, the show looks into different aspects of fatherhood from the points of view of Danny, a second-time father faced with parental a situation he’s not keen on, as well as librarian dominatrix Jenny. Plus, he’s managed to put monologues into a play without there being a vagina in sight (psst, it’s a fella in a dress).

Go along, and ask yourself, who is your daddy, theatrically.

And if you miss it now you can catch it at the Brighton Festival in May, and in Totnes and Bridgwater in June.

Jonathan was a guest on the first Surreal Saloon – watch it on D+CFilm. The next Surreal Saloon is at the Exeter Phoenix media centre on May 4.
