Confessions From the Bell Jar, How Gay Am I?, and Fantastic Breasts (And Where to Find Them)

Arts, Comedy, performance

Jack Lynch says ‘there’s a Sylvia Plath quote for every occasion’ and CONFESSIONS FROM A BELL JAR is evidence of that. Jack joins the Cabaret Room to talk about his show, how it has developed over time and what he hopes the audience will get from the production.

Sunanda Sachatrakul’s debut solo show, HOW GAY AM I? is a comedic storytelling about coming out and ‘what if’ scenarios. Sunanda is an adopted, 3rd generation Punjabi who was raised in Thailand. She asks what would my life had been if I was adopted in England? If I was raised in the orphanage? Sunanda talks about her background, the art storytelling and creating structure within stand-up comedy.

FANTASTIC BREASTS (AND WHERE TO FIND THEM) is a ‘nerdlesque’ romp for Harry Potter fans. “Dumbledaddy has summoned the trio for a very important mission. Someone has let lose multiple dangerous and saucy magical creatures and they’re threatening to expose more than just the Wizarding World…” Luna Envy and Rosie Roulette join the team to talk about the inspiration for the show, the creative process and the acts that form this ‘Potter Parody’.
