Colchester Fringe : Pup Play: A Queer Pseudo-Lecture (of sorts) Noah Alfred Pantano

October 28, 2024

Every year, Colchester Fringe invites the world’s leading lecturers to give groundbreaking talks on the issues that matter. This year, instead of that, Professor Handler David will give a queer pseudo-lecture (of sorts) on how to put your puppy bitch boy into a submissive headspace through his system of YELPS. What follows is a surprisingly introspective and chaotic search for identity featuring audience participation, homonormative puppet shows, kinky gay sex, and erotic musical numbers.

Noah Alfred Pantano stars as Professor Handler David and is the writer, director, and producer of the play. He is from the USA and is studying for his Ph.D. in Theatre Studies (Playwriting) at the University of Essex under the supervision of Sean Seeger and Jonathan Lichtenstein. Pantano’s work focuses on participatory and immersive queer theatre and how to engage audiences to socially and politically act on their queer empathy. His previous plays include Standing On A Nail: A Queer Horror Story, The Humanoid Chicken is a Metaphor, and Citizen.

American independent musicians Jacob Sullivan, Tungsten Lungs, and Alan Xtra write the score and songs. Their bands include Dracula and His Band The Draculas, The Hit Singles, Jake and the Nowhere, The Blood Clots, and Olive Gardener. They operate under the production label Ded Sullivan Productions.

Thanks to a generous donation from Essex Startups, 100% of the artist share will be donated.

*Please note there is no lift to access the top floor of Three Wise Monkeys. There are five flights of hand-railed stairs to reach the top floor with rest opportunities between each flight. Also, their licensing does not allow anyone under the age of 18 years of age to be in the venue past 9pm. Please consider this when booking.
