'his offers no solutions is a piece that uses stand-up comedy, live sound and dance to follow the story of an introverted IT worker whose sense of self is shattered when he encounters a glitch that he cannot rectify.
It follows Luke, a repressed IT worker whose carefully ordered world begins to fracture when he realises he wants to become - no, I can't say it.
As Luke's reality glitches between office culture, online spaces and increasingly surreal encounters, identities slip, language breaks apart and transformation refuses to settle into something tidy. Humour collides with theatrical experimentation to create a sonically rich, shape-shifting world where voices multiply, bodies misbehave and certainty is always just out of reach.
Drawing inspiration from Glitch Feminism, this offers no solutions playfully unpicks ideas of identity, professionalism and visibility without offering easy answers. Instead, it invites audiences into an absurd, and unexpectedly earnest exploration of what happens when the systems we're expected to fit inside stop making sense - and when becoming something else might be the only way forward.
