SWAGGER: THE BEST OF PEGGY SHAW
A one off chance to see living legend and sublime gender bender Peggy Shaw performing in Ireland for the first time with a full show. A truly iconic lesbian performer in the height of her prowess, Swagger is Shaws favourite moments from her worldwide hit solo shows – Youre just Like My Father, Menopausal Gentleman, To My Chagrin and Must.
Founder of the Wow Café (NYC) and the acclaimed Split Britches performance company, Shaw has been described by the Edinburgh Times as: Truculent and funny, swaggering and sensitive… extraordinary. Dressed in a natty suit and tie, with her salt-and-pepper hair cut short, she looks and acts like an older Sean Penn, were he to have been cast as a hard-boiled private eye in a 1940s noir thriller. Sharp comic lines and ideas flow out in a stream of heightened language.
Transgressive. Explosive. Superb. THISISPOPBABY is proud to present this outstanding performer in her Irish theatre debut.
