And They Called
Him Mr Glamour

By Gareth Davies
Director Thomas M. Wright

  • Venue Downstairs Theatre
  • Dates 15 Sept – 9 Oct 2011

    A co-production with The Black Lung Theatre and Whaling Firm

    The Black Lung Theatre and Whaling Firm are a Melbourne anti-institution that have never appeared on stage in Sydney. Davies’s brilliant text And They Called Him Mr Glamour is a pathetically hilarious tale of a man, alone on stage, desperately seeking the audience’s attention.

    Davies is a true fool: intelligent, relentless, brave, and very, very funny. Mr Glamour is his one-man plea for self-respect, heroism and the right to be a hopeless idiot. The intrepid Thomas Wright (not to be confused with The Oresteia’s Tom Wright) makes his Belvoir directing debut.

    Warning: this show is offensive in many different ways, and includes nudity.
