A queer commedia solo extravaganza of stand up, improv, & campy character hijinks.
One comedian (Nick Mayfield) transforms into a cast of characters in this comic extravaganza of queer identity. Part stand-up, part improv, part commedia, character-driven, pantomime-adjacent hijinks (What does that mean? Wouldn’t you like to know? Yes, you would! Think gay Robin Williams let loose on late, late, late night TV, WITH MASKS), MASC4MASK breathes life into multiple POVs from Boston Mark, who may be suffering from just a soupcon of internalized homophobia, “I mean I’m definitely gay, but I’m not GAY gay,” to La Capitanx, who will undoubtedly be obSESSED with your look and knows some creative ways to bring dom mommy energy to a double bottom situation. Grab your poppers and let’s dive DEEP.
