GENERIC MALE

THURSDAY, APRIL 18, 2024 | 7:30pm

Little Theatre 1 (240 East Ave.)
Doors at 7:00pm

Explosive, athletic, visceral physical theatre ruined by a tragic lack of understanding.

The Generic Males’ multi-award-winning Off-Broadway show returns to give us just what we need: another god-damn show about men. It’s fathers & sons, it’s war & death. It takes us into the beating heart of the failing patriarchy as it descends into acrobatic absurdity. Described by The Orlando Weekly as “Cirque du Soleil meets Samuel Beckett with a dash a Monty Python”. You’ll laugh out loud, you’ll cry your ass off, you’ll bury those feelings deep inside and never speak of them again. Ugh…men.

Prior to its Off-Broadway run at the SOHO Playhouse, Generic Male was the winner of the “International Fringe Encore Series”, Three “Best of the Fest” awards as well as “Critics Choice Best Show” at Orlando Fringe and “Outstanding Production” at Ottawa Fringe, a “Jenny” in Winnipeg and “Media Pick” with a 5 out of 5 star review in Edmonton have made PUSH Physical Theatre’s masculinity satire an international sensation.

FAQ

Are we just watching a couple of petty idiots or is this the most insightful piece of theatre of the 21st century? …No

Can you bring kids? Probably… There are some swears one awkward conversation between a father and son about consent. If it were a movie it would probably be a PG 13. The underlying message for boys and girls is positive and thoughtful – there will be lots to talk about on the ride home.
