"This is the weirdest piece of the theatre I’ve ever been a part of. I’m just going to tell it like it happened. "
Over the past six years, feature-length documentary Man Lessons has been in production following Adam Rohe’s transition. Now, the live show combines captivating storytelling and documentary as Rohe takes us through the wild, earnest behind-the-scenes.
A coming-of-age story that transcends the patriarchy, values wellbeing over sanity, and absolves you of the pressure to “just be yourself”.
