Such a great show. Saw it with my teenage son & the humour & storytelling cut through & started some great conversations
📣 Here's a first look at Wee Man (2025)
Wee Man blends raw movement, humour, & honest storytelling to unpack the "rulebook" of male behaviour—from everyday pressures to darker, inherited ideals.

REVIEW: Wee Man
Two young men play something that looks a lot like football as the crowd sits down in the circle of chairs surrounding the stage. The floor is marked to resemble a school gym, various circles and dotted lines laid out to vaguely resemble the courts of various sports.
