Boys' Life

My mate George Leggat was the main actor in this play (Boy's Life) at the Etcetera Theatre in Camden, London. He asked me to put a poster together to promote the play and here it is. This was the first of 2 posters I ended up doing for him - you can see the other one, bruises, here

As it happened, the play was selected by Timeout London as their play of the week - good work George!

About the play

Told in a series of fast-paced, sharply etched scenes, the play traces the misadventures of three former college buddies now seeking to make their way in the big city—and with various women of their acquaintance. There is the cynical Jack, who is already married and a father, but is not above pursuing daytime adulteries while babysitting in the park; the innocent, vulnerable Phil, who grows weary of not being taken seriously and concludes that being unhappy is the way things are supposed to be; and the handsome, amoral Don, who risks a solid relationship with his girlfriend by sleeping with another, simply to see if he "could get away with it." Moving along briskly, with its mood of satirical humor brilliantly sustained, the play dissects and anatomises the male narcissism—and protracted adolescence—which characterises its protagonists and, in the end, makes it hilariously clear that it is actually the women who possess the qualities of "manhood" and maturity which their deluded lovers so desperately lay claim to.
