Beyond the Threshold presents "What A Man's Gotta Do" by Andrew Horabin
Andrew Horabin is a state and national award-winning singer/songwriter with a one man comedy musical that asks, What’s a man gotta do to be a man in your town?
In his hilarious show, Andrew uses comedy, song and storytelling to explore some of the issues of masculinity - sex, work, marriage, mateship, intimacy, fathering, feelings, booze, homophobia and attachments to motor vehicles.
Our story begins when Adam's Buck's Party collides with Lucy's Hens in the street. Lucy declares that he'll never grow up. Adam protests. She gives him 24 hours to prove he's a man - or the wedding's off!
Muzza and Gazza are not much help. They tell him she's just a sheila and sheilas change their minds. But she's not changing it back. And the hour of the wedding is fast approaching, leaving Adam asking "What's a man gotta do to be a man?"
With no formal initiation or rites of passage, these three young blokes must forge their own path into manhood.
The audience helps, with their own ideas of how to become a man, but will it be enough? How lost will they get on the journey? What risks do they take in trying to initiate themselves? And will they make it back in time?
Seriously funny, moving and true, Adam's story will have your audience asking what it means to be a man in your town - and how they might help the boys to get there.
The themes are serious. The show is a hilarious musical comedy. The combination is powerful.
Audience Advice: Production contains adult themes and coarse language. Not suitable for people under the age of 16.
