Brian Shaughnessy tells his story in frank language, with a fine command of the stage. After a few minutes you forget he is speaking from a wheelchair, except when he uses it to emphasize a point. Anyone who has dealt with a life-changing medical event will recognize their story in Brian’s story. He calls his story one of “cynical hope.” We’ve come a long way since his medical mutilation in the early 1980s, yet this is a story that still must be told.
Occasionally Shaughnessy’s acerbic speaking style will make you uncomfortable. And if you stay past the first conclusion, you may not like the final conclusion.
Another excellent one man show that is not the usual type of show people think of at a Fringe Festival.
