4-Way Stretch

Lost in grief, a drag king finds himself stretched by the four components of time; past, present, future and... gender identity. In Stretcher Hartout’s second one man show and first time fringe debut, this drag king rekindles himself with his femininity and labours to fit in non-toxic masculinity.
