Jimmy - A Ridiculous Tragedy

Jimmy - A Ridiculous Tragedy by Richard Kimberley Laugh and cry at the ridiculousness of it all, as our young hero goes in search of understanding what it means to be leaving boyhood behind to become a man. Through physical theatre, pantomime, clown, improvisation and playing with the tragic themes of a patriarchal society, hidden grief, roots of toxic behaviour, shame, initiation and male mentorship, JIMMY’s journey invites to dismantle and reflect. Come and join him setting foot on complex grounds and trying to figure things out. Let’s laugh, cry, be confused and amused in this intimate and comically serious show.
