I’m Doing This For You

Event Date: 
27/07/2016 - 7:30pm to 28/07/2016 - 9:00pm
Venue: 
Bike Shed Theatre, Exeter

I’m Doing This for You is a new solo written & performed by “fearless, raw young talent” Haley McGee.

Blending storytelling, live-art and improvisation, this performance is a big romantic gesture made by a woman for a man. He’s an aspiring standup comedian. Today is his birthday. The audience is her gift to him. It’s a surprise. “You get comedy and cake. I get to correct a mistake.”

Over the course of the evening the event evolves from an attempt to rekindle romance to an exorcism of that love. And the only way out is through. Uncomfortable, funny and a little bit sad,...

1989. Manchester. A frenzy of drugs, beats and bucket hats. Illegal raves. Acid parties. Just jumping up and down in a field and throwing two fingers to Thatcher… Remember it? Because we don’t. We weren’t even born. But Ian was. And Ian does remember. We’ve got fuck all now (Ian tells us). So, we’re going back to 1989. We’re gonna neck a brown biscuit. We’re gonna get off our peanuts. We’re gonna bounce around like idiots. And Ian’s going to show us how. We’re mad fer it. And you will be too. Let’s party.

Ventoux is a restaging of the dramatic battle between Lance Armstrong and Marco Pantani in the Tour de France 2000 on Mont Ventoux. Once regarded as the greatest race in the history of cycling, we now know that both Armstrong and Pantani doped during their careers.

At the time both were champions in their own right – Pantani winning the Tour de France in 1998, and Armstrong winning in 1999. In 2000 they went head to head on Mont Ventoux. They crossed the line together but their careers spiralled in wildly opposite directions.

Armstrong won seven consecutive Tour de France...
