World War Me: The Boy Who Starts Wars With Himself
Some people spend their lives fighting the world. Chris Young decided to cut out the middleman and fight himself instead.
Chris returns to Colchester with a hilarious and honest exploration of life lived between ambition and avoidance, confidence and panic, growth.
World War Me is a one-man comedy about the battles raging inside all of us. Every insecurity becomes a dictator. Every ambition stages a coup. Every text message demands a full-scale diplomatic response. Inside Chris's mind, simple decisions become military campaigns and minor setbacks are treated like national emergencies.
this show explores what happens when the person holding you back and the person trying to move you forward are trapped in the same body.
Funny, heartfelt and gloriously self-destructive, World War Me is about growing older without necessarily growing up, searching for peace in a mind that keeps choosing war, and discovering that sometimes the biggest obstacle to becoming the person you want to be is the person you've already become.
The enemy is within.
