The Be(A)st of Taylor Mac

A flamboyant chameleon of words, music and socio-political tirades, multi-award-winning New York sensation Taylor Mac sings of life and love, doubt and fear. Funny and moving with a sweet, powerful voice, this is an evening of gender-bending surrealism that explores the human condition and global politics. Oh, and he plays the ukulele.

This production, directed by OBIE-Award-winner David Drake, has toured the US, Canada, Great Britain, Ireland, Australia, and Sweden and has received numerous awards , including a Herald Angel Award (Edinburgh), Latest 7 Award (Brighton), Argus Angel Award (Brighton), Best of Brighton Review Award, and a GLAAD Media Award Nomination (New York City).
 
"You marvel at how assured and in control this brash, genial performer is." - The New York Times

"Quite the most distinctive and brilliant performer I've witnessed in ages." 5 stars - The Scotsman

"An unflinching witness to a host of societies ills...linked together by a gentle impassioned humanity and a wry humor that can have you helpless with laughter, then overcome by an urge to weep - and ultimately left thinking and wanting to make life better" - The Herald
