Weaving slick choreography and dialogue with a soundtrack of contemporary beats, this award-winning show celebrates male tenderness, silliness, vulnerability and community. Joyful, electric, unscripted and occasionally raw but always tender. BOYS was created by this 10-strong company to unravel preconceptions and uncover the endless possibilities of masculinity.

The PappyShow is an ensemble theatre company that creates space for people to dance, play and celebrate their authentic voice. BOYS was the winner of the Origins Outstanding New Work Award at VAULT Festival.

“We want to show the things about boys that you don’t always get to see. To challenge the things you think you already know. To celebrate the things that make us different and the same.” The PappyShow
