Critically acclaimed Masterclass to premiere at Southbank Centre in May
Irish Theatre sensation 'Masterclass' set to confront gender dynamics in London premiere featuring Adrienne Truscott.
Get ready to witness a theatrical spectacle like no other as the internationally renowned Irish theatre company Brokentalkers joins forces with award-winning feminist comedian Adrienne Truscott for the highly anticipated London premiere of Masterclass. Set to take place at the Southbank Centre from 9 - 12 May, this groundbreaking production ingeniously tackles gender dynamics with humor and wit.
Masterclass has already garnered critical acclaim, earning the prestigious Fringe First Award in 2022. At its core, the play offers a scathing parody of the stereotypical 'great male artist,' embodied by Truscott in the guise of a swaggering, Hemingway-esque playwright. Through dynamic comic satire, audiences are treated to a masterclass in condescension as Truscott's character navigates themes of privilege and patriarchy with wit and bravado.
With Brokentalkers' reputation for tackling themes of misogyny and gender inequality head-on, and Truscott's fearless approach to pushing boundaries, Masterclass promises to be a thought-provoking and wildly entertaining experience.
Date: 9 - 12 May 2024. Time: 3pm & 7.45pm. Location: Purcell Room at Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre, Belvedere Road, London SE1 8XX. Price: from £25. Book now.
