Him
A reclusive hoarder whose only connection to society is the daily paper.
Overview
Him stars Barnie Duncan in a refreshingly inventive solo show. The protagonist is a reclusive hoarder, who lives obsessively through his only connection with the outside world - the daily paper.
He re-enacts articles, performs the weather, does the crossword, and pays his respects to the day’s obituaries. The audience witnesses the lonely but hopeful rituals of a complex man completely surrounded by newsprint. Him won Duncan the 2013 Auckland Fringe Festival's Fringe Award and has also toured to critical acclaim in Melbourne and Adelaide. It's directed by Theatre Beating's Geoff Pinfield, with sound composed by Melbourne Electronica artist Beatrice.
