KINDER

What happens when you're booked (but not blessed)

Winner, Best LGBTQIA+ Edinburgh Fringe Award (List). An unexpected call from a library derails a performance planned by newly arrived drag artist Goody Prostate, booked to headline the local reading hour. But as they race against the clock to scramble together a new act in real time, they spiral into a chaotic interrogation of childhood, memory and a long overdue examination of what it means to grow up. The library is open – sit down, be quiet and listen. Because sometimes, reading is what? Fundamentalist. 


ENHANCED PERFORMANCE INFORMATION

A relaxed performance of Kinder is available. For this performance, some of the more intense lighting sequences will be reduced in severity, and the volume of accompanying sound will be lowered.

Audience perks include: permission to move around and make noise, and a show guide/synopsis/character list. Content notes: the show contains a total blackout, flashing/strobed lighting, characters expressing anger, and heavily dialogue-driven scenes. The performer enters the audience area. There is no audience participation.

Before the show, audiences will have access to a character description video from the performer and a PDF visual story detailing narrative and technical elements of the performance.
