Daisy Fairclough

Meet Elijah - a lonely boy in a world drained of meaning, an intellectual and wannabe politician, a mirror to the dark undercurrents of Western masculinity. In this riotously funny and unsettling one-woman show, the sacred chaos of clown and bouffon collides with the cold machinery of modern politics. From the rise of incel culture to the quiet allure of fascist ideals among young men, this piece is surreal, savage, and weirdly tender - a Machiavellian circus where nothing is sacred and everything's a joke… until it isn't. Come squirm. Laugh. Meet Elijah.
