The Penis Monologues come to Liverpool for an April Fools Special Debut
The
Nomadic Academy for Fools
Tues 1st Apr - Fri 4th Apr 2014
This April The Nomadic Academy for Fools brings their unique improvisational
theatre to Liverpool with The Penis Monologues. To date the show has had
three sell-out performances in Bristol and Glastonbury, Somerset and has
just returned from a successful run in London.
The production is a semi-improvised journey that delves into the heart
of contemporary man’s unmanly revelations.
Exploring male attitudes towards sex, women, violence, emotional insecurities
and what it’s like to have a penis, four men bring to life their
personally true stories with vulnerability and a foolish edge.
The project’s originator, Paul Scott, had felt impacted watching
Eve Ensler’s The Vagina Monologues, “I was inspired, yet wanted
to take it a step further by creating a piece where each cast member brings
their own personal experiences.”
Each monologue is personal and unique, yet the themes are universal.
The audience can each find themselves and the depths of their vulnerabilities
being played out on stage.
Justine Corrie, the show’s co-producer discusses the impact the
show has had on audiences to date, “The show attracts a lot of curious
women as well as men. The feedback we’ve received after the shows
has been incredible, there’s a sense of relief that these issues
are being brought out into the open in such a playful way.”
With each performance the show evolves, it’s never the same show
twice. The cast work together in the moment, with set pieces told in a
spontaneous and unrehearsed style. This is genuine theatre of the fool.
This is an exciting London debut for The Penis Monologues and talented
cast of: Paul Scott, Bruce Knight, Chris Murray, Danny Mullins and Joanne
Tremarco with additional support from Jane Scott.
