Chuck the gender binary aside and join award-winning drag-king Dad for a queer reparenting extravaganza, fusing clown, drag and cabaret. Through the lens of toast, cycling jokes and Radio 4, Dad Jokes takes you on a coming-of-middle-age story about one regular dad's attempt to understand his queer child. Expect lectures in lesbianism, hymns on housework and a much needed visit from Mummy.
Dad Jokes is a love-letter to the queer community and parents who perhaps don’t ‘get it’, but really try to. It is an exploration of softer masculinity, utopian visions of parenting and the queer reinvention of family.
"Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
