The Byre – A Brief History of the Fragile Male Ego (theatre show)

A Brief History of the Fragile Male Ego is a riotous new feminist physical theatre show, from the maker’s of Fringe First winning production Sanitise, that cuts to the bone of the current conversation around gender politics. Andrea has been giving her lecture but it’s not going well. Her previous events have been marred by protests and she’s hoping the open minded audience will hear her out. You see, half the world are suffering under the weight of a great burden and if we don’t wake up to this problem everything will smash. And we wouldn’t want that now, would we.

 

Jordan  &  Skinner  are  a  theatre  company  who  want  to  see  a  world  in  which  women  take  up  space*. We are based in Scotland and lead by performer Melanie Jordan and director Caitlin Skinner. We make joyful performance about the stuff that makes us angry.  Our style is a mix of physical theatre, clown, dance, politics and visual metaphor with an unapologetically militant intersectional feminist agenda.
*by women we mean–  trans,  cis,  non  binary,  gender  non  conforming,  femmes,  females,  girls and more.
