ON-SALE FRIDAY 29TH AUG via the Mercury Theatre Website
Step into the Magnetic World of “MAN: A One-Woman Show” Prepare to be captivated by Emma Taylor’s MAN: A One-Woman Show, a ★★★★ Edinburgh Fringe sensation that masterfully dissects identity, gender, and the impact of toxic masculinity. Heralded as “magnetic” by The Guardian, Taylor delivers a 55-minute powerhouse performance, embodying a spectrum of characters with “impressive control” and “sheer quality and intensity” (The Scotsman). This bold, abstract theatrical journey is both deeply personal and universally resonant. From her Hell’s Angel teenage years to navigating patriarchal expectations, Taylor’s raw honesty and humor shine through in a story that is as empowering as it is thought-provoking. With moments of “tense and tantalising” drama (The Guardian) and dry comedy, she stitches together fragments of her life into an unforgettable tapestry. Don’t miss this “fascinating, unique theatrical experience” (The QR). Whether you’re drawn to its sharp critique of masculinity or Taylor’s magnetic stage presence, MAN is a must-see.
