That's Not My Name
This is NOT a show about mental health.
In fact, this is NOT a show.
THIS is a disorder.
We’re just joking.
We’re HALF joking.
We’re BORDERLINE joking.
Have we rehearsed it?
Possibly.
Have we written it?
It depends.
Is there a script?
Unclear.
But it is a comedy, right?
A comedy about severe mental illness?! Who would do such a thing?!
You. You psychopath.
Fair enough.
So it’s a PLAY?
No it’s not a f*cking play. F*ck off.
Embarking on an Arts Council funded (somehow!) tour, That's Not My Name is 75 minutes of ‘complete carnage’ in the form of stand-up, sketch and musical comedy speaking to the insanity of Psychiatry, labels and our mental health system.
Written (?) by a deplorable anthropoid with more mental illnesses than you have friends. Assuming you have any friends.
