Description:
Let's go back to the early 2000s. Y2K. Gelled quiffs. Chavs. Dial-up. 13-year-old Nathan, a mixed-race boy of Jamaican heritage, is forced from the city to a white, working-class Northern town, he sticks out immediately. Surrounded by a new kind of masculinity, he quickly learns what to say, how to act, and who to be to survive. This autobiographical solo show blends storytelling and character comedy; exploring masculinity, race and belonging. A funny, unflinching examination of nostalgia - and how a generation of young men learnt to fit in, and how to man up.
