20 Things I'll Never Do Again - shows at The Backlot Perth
About
The creator of SHAMELESSLY SEEKING ATTENTION and THE SOUND OF A SOCIAL CLIMBING NUN is back in a brand-new show about the joys and frustrations of travel.Michael Bowyer has set foot on all seven continents. He’s got drunk from eating French fries, had dinner with a cross-dressing nudist and paraglided off the Andes. He’s witnessed resurrections ON the hour in a South American city where you can rent hotel rooms BY the hour.
From militant coffee mugs to Communist lemonade; from a giant prawn to a gigantic cask; from Paradise to Paraguay, Michael tells it as it was. He goes back to the days of traveller’s cheques, aerogrammes and when calling home meant 10 coins and 30 seconds of garbled conversation in a freezing telephone booth. And he talks fondly of the friends who made every little disaster worthwhile.
There are photos, videos and a stunning 48-year-old poem that’s never been heard in public. Until now. Don’t miss 20 THINGS I'LL NEVER DO AGAIN.
Suitable for 16+
