The Me Plays

A double bill of monologues written and performed by Andrew Maddock and directed by Ryan Bradley.

The evening opens with “Junkie”. Me has met a girl on Tinder and his brand new red jumper doesn’t fit. But why leave the house when there is a million other fish in the digital sea? “Junkie” is a sharp witted emotional journey into everyday averageness and the rise of the digital age.

“Hi Life, I Win” forms the second half of the evening where we join Me, on the eve of his biopsy, as he takes a look back at his tearaway teenage years stuck inside a Catholic School. Expect Adidas Poppers, Dr Dre, Bunking French and Loudon Wainwright III. “Hi Life, I win” is a nostalgic reflection of life that anyone whose ever been a teenager can relate to.

Exciting young writer Andrew Maddock’s The Me Plays present a semi-autobiographical look at growing up in Wembley, complete with discussions of male body image, internet pornography, Roman Catholic schools and Rap. Expect laughs and lows in a series of plays that look at what it means to be somebody finding their way in the world in the new digital age.
