Fantastic show! I appreciated the combination of visual references to other's work with oral elements of the performer's story. The entertaining musical performance left the audience feeling touched, inspired, and committed to improving.

Back to see this moving one-man-show for a second time! Artist Alick Mac takes you on a reflective journey, exploring everything from how boy’s are conditioned from a young age to keep emotions inside, to the dark and disturbing “Manosphere” and virtual AI girlfriends, to father and son relationships and the impact all of this has on girls and women. If you’re looking for a “woe is me, poor guys’ story, you won’t find it in Boys Club. This humble, at times humerous, empathetic and educational show will make you think about how we raise our sons, and how we all unwittingly buy into the Boys’ Club. Intertwined with music, rap, singing and storytelling, this may well be the fastest, most informative hour the fringe has to offer! Well done, Alick Mac!
