Greater Manchester Fringe posted a photo:
Elephant in the Closet present Why I am an Avocado, a semi-interactive comedy performance where the audience meet a range of characters all with one thing in common – they are queer. From a self-help session, a love story for the ages, and a TV letter corner, these narratives all take a varied look at queer experiences.
Keith and Delilah invite the audience to find their true purpose, one that they are confident they cannot and will not turn away from. With games, exercises, and confessions, Keith and Delilah intend to unlock the potential within all of us.
Then there is Juliet where in this re-telling of her story the conflict resides not with her family but rather with her own subconscious. A back-and-forth battle between the two taking place with an unsuspecting Romeo as the sole witness.
In Callum’s Corner, a TV agony aunt gives his advice on the issues facing his long-time and loyal viewers. Trying his best, prepare for some interesting tips on dealing with some of life’s most difficult situations.
Each of these characters and their interactions speak to the multitude of queer experiences. Their stories are told with love, laughter and honesty, which gives this comedy show more layers than first expected.
