Father Figurine at The Wardrobe Theatre

A event held at The Wardrobe Theatre on Saturday 14th September. The event starts at 19:30.


Combining poignant spoken word poetry with hip hop dance, Father Figurine explores the fractured relationship between a father and his son and their inability to healthily deal with a traumatic event.

Will they be able to share their emotions with each other? Or will they fall into the statistic of nearly half of men believing they can’t express their feelings?

“Father Figurine is a powerful show, profound, painful and full of empathy. Stereotypical ideas about masculinity and male behaviour are stubborn but it will be up to this generation to challenge them.” - Mark Aspen Reviews

13-14 September
