DIARY OF A HOLE

DIARY OF A HOLE

Bring your friends.
Lose your shame.

Diary of a Hole is a musical trauma-comedy (a trauma-dy) exploring gay sexuality, identity, internalized homophobia and toxic masculinity.

In a prison where inmates are forced to perform, audiences are confronted with provocative scenes of stereotypes, villainy and entertaining song and dance numbers. An international ensemble embodies outrageous, Buffon-style caricatures that present comedic vignettes of an absurd and violent world. Diary of a Hole explores the fears, desires, and destructive behaviors surrounding gay men and asks what it means to be queer, to be a man, and to be human.

NOTE: Ages 18+. Provocative material involving graphic sexual content, offensive language, and violence. Loud sounds and small spaces.
