SHOW CELEBRATES ONE COLOURFUL IDENTITY

Are you ready for a theatre experience like no other? Are you ready to be shocked, surprised, to learn and to understand how family, culture and every experience makes us who we are? Chasing the Lollyman is a one man show performed by Mark Sheppard, that will push boundaries, it will also enlighten, entertain and prompt so many emotions that you are bound to be exhausted by the end of it - but still be left wanting more.
Mark Sheppard is one of Queensland’s most dynamic and funny Indigenous performers and in this premiere season Sheppard goes where no Indigenous man has gone before, taking it upon himself to instruct the audience on his culture in such skits as ‘Finding your inner Aboriginality’ and the ‘Murri Superhero, Muh Man’ while throwing in a little stand up with his views on footy, neighbours, spirituality and dancing in public.
At the heart of this unique body of work are one man’s beliefs about contemporary Aboriginal identity. Best known for his role in the 2006 deBASE comedy hit The Clown from Snowy River, Mark Sheppard is a must see in Chasing the Lollyman, yet another thought provoking comic offering from the always innovative deBASE, that urges all of the audience to follow your dreams and make a positive change.

Sue Benner Theatre, Metro Arts, 109 Edward Street, Brisbane CBD.
