Jem Rolls isn’t creepy, he’s scary. Scary GOOD. He’s hilarious, his work resonates with anyone in his audience. Jem Rolls is funny, he’s relatable and witty, but at the core of this performance he’s an incredibly skilled poet. This use of repetition, rhyme, enunciation, and rhythm is masterful. This shoeless man’s voice will echo in my head for weeks - and i’m so inspired. I am cheery and in no way weary, i’m hypnotized by this lurky british man. Jem is a true gem (haha) of his trade, and i’m so grateful to have experienced this collection at Fringe. “Run like hell!” It’s an insane performance you have to go check out.
