Lizard Boy (Creative Endeavor Office And Blair Russell Productions)
By Raphael Highgate-Betts | Published on Monday 15 August 2022
After an extraordinary childhood incident leaves Trevor with scaly green skin, he withdraws from the world. Spending his time in isolation, drawing in his notebook and writing songs. A sad and lonely existence, except for one day a year when everyone dresses up as lizard people for Monster Fest, allowing him to finally venture out into the world. The ultra-talented cast is outstanding, the music is incredible and the audience love it: standing ovations all round. Constant laughter complements this epic journey of friendship and self-discovery. ‘Lizard Boy’ is a hilarious new musical that reminds us that only we can decide who we are. After all, a dragon is only seen as a monster in the eyes of men.
Gilded Balloon Patter Hoose, until 28 Aug.
