Ben Brailsford

A bungling monologue this from a self-confessed geek and bassoonist, detailing his misfortune at being wrongly accused of aggravated trespass during the recent anti-cuts protests in London. His material is repetitive and the searing insignificance of his plight in the face of current turbulences is excruciating. Recorded musical interludes provide respite from this young performer’s harmless, yet monotonous, endeavour.
