PREVIEW: Brighton Fringe: Transgendered Shakespeare

A new play in which a father and transgender child workout how to both communicate and relate is to each other to receive its public premier at the Brighton Fringe 2016.

The play takes a fresh look at the age-old problem of family communications, but with humour and a twist.

Communication? Between a father and a child? How difficult can that be?

Communication? Between a father and a transgender child? How much of a nightmare can that be?

On his 400th anniversary, can Shakespeare help?

Follow a father and child exploring each other’s worlds with the help, and hindrance of the Bard.

The Grateful Dead and Against Me provide some musical assistance.

Written and performed by said father and child. By the father as a way to understand, by the child as a way to self-expression and release.
