Is obsession even about the person you're obsessed with? When desire meets fantasy, we transform someone into something - something that we need them to be, and in turn something that allows us to be someone else.
A university tutor who wages academic warfare.
A dating app match who teases and slips through fingers.
A school crush who looks at you like no one else has before.
A monologue in three parts, Looking for Giants sees our narrator enter the minds of the men she can’t stop thinking about, inhabiting the objects of her obsession. When the boundaries between self and other start to blur, who’s in control of the narrative?
Looking for Giants is a one-woman show about gender, sex, and the stories we tell ourselves. Lofty, abstract themes? We promise to treat them with comedy, authenticity, and gut-tickling honesty.
