A dingy pub toilet. A disastrous Tinder date. One man's brutally honest confession about masculinity.
Put It In, I'm Ready follows a man hiding from his date as he unravels the story of his depression, his suicide attempt, and his toxic relationship with internet "alpha males" like Andrew Tate. Weaving his own experiences with verbatim testimonies from other men, Tom Heald creates darkly comic theatre about the impossible pressure to be a "proper man'' and the life-saving courage it takes to ask for help.
This production is suitable for ages 16 and over.
Strong language and sexual references.
References to: suicide, depression, mental illness, alcoholism, homophobia, transphobia and misogyny.
