Based on real life, My Dad Wears A Dress follows a girl's journey, from childhood to youth, navigating a world in which all the dads she knows are men. Personal and yet relatable, it shows the challenges of fitting in as a young person, from from toilet mishaps to failed Valentine's Day confessions.
Brimming with life and sincerity, the play challenges a world of heteronormative values, from the struggles of buying a Fathers’ Day card to the questions raised describing one’s family in a French lesson.
My Dad Wears A Dress is a celebration of difference and acceptance. Suitable for all audiences: come and enjoy a fun, zany show that asks what it means to have a "normal family".
“It means so much to be working at CPT, it’s such a good opportunity to work in a professional environment at my age. I didn’t think that was ever going to happen and it means the world to me. It’s really going to help prepare me for my future and where I want to go”
