Joe Tracini and Norwich Theatre present this solo show at Ermintrude — a comedy about hope, mental illness, good liars, bad ideas, Lorraine Kelly and a gang lord forcing Tracini to hold a raw chicken. Written over a long stretch of years, the show centres on Tracini's experience of living with a complex mental illness called borderline personality disorder (BPD). He describes the show as being mostly about hope, and invites audiences to come because he wrote it for them. The Telegraph called it searingly funny, informative and surprisingly moving.
Why see this show?
A show written from a genuinely personal place, about living with borderline personality disorder and finding hope in the telling. Funny, tender and surprisingly uplifting — this is the kind of stand-up that reminds you why personal storytelling matters.
