Sons of Liverpool: Gerry Potter
Monday 8th May
Sons of Liverpool is a theatre-verse exploration of a very different kind of parenting. Gerry Potter is often introduced to audiences country-wide as a son of Liverpool, which got him thinking, what does that mean? Are we our cities, do red-brick and industry, back-alleys and nightclubs, the church, the school, the chippy, indeed do those ribald Dock Road pubs have a hand in our upbringing? Son of Liverpool is about being the child, troubled teen and grown up of more than your immediate clan and influences. Birth, life, death and the raucous hilarity of gregarious theatrics, bricks, cranes, mortar and Queerology collide and are reborn in a life well-lived and outspoken.
