Written and performed by Anna Krauze.
If you ever thought you may have "daddy issues" or know someone who does, this show is for you. *
Natalia, a Polish immigrant, wants to succeed as a painter (she mainly paints vulvas, but is happy to get commissioned for a d*ck or two), but instead, she’s a phone sex worker (“what is that, Mr Vasiliev? You would f*ck your daughter if she would allow it?”) receiving calls from older men seeking a “young girlfriend experience”. Oh, and she has her own daddy troubles.
Daddy Issues, created by the Passing Stranger Theatre Company is a fast-paced dark comedy about childhood trauma, sex work, bedroom fantasies, imperfect feminism, immigration and life of an artist.
