Curious Earthling is a story of growing up in a 'stable for labourers'; training to be a priest; taking the night bus to London; becoming an actor, a writer, a father, a fitness fanatic and an addict. It is a chronicle of early death, self-destruction, oblivion, freefalling and falling free. He's trying to be funny, too.
Tobi King Bakare and this theatre deserve a shout-out for such a young, diverse audience. There is so much talk about audiences being full of over 60s and why, why can’t theatres get the crowds in to reflect society in general? Well, I’m happy to say that on a rainy Thursday evening, the theatre was completely full.
