Every word Rogers says seeps through the skin, attaches to the heart and nestles itself deep within the psyche in a beautiful way.

Painful, raw, inspiring, sad, triumphant, truthful, compassionate, healing and resilient

A powerful performance piece delivered by a man who is much more forgiving than I could ever be!

The show doesn’t offer neat answers (that’s not life to be honest), but it offers something more valuable: connection…

Wow, what an incredibly vulnerable and raw story telling journey through poetry, spoken word and songs. Be prepared to cry, laugh and empathise throughout this performance exploring trauma, grief, addiction, but also, love support and recovery. I really hope this show returns next year as it is so worthy of reaching many more people.

You know you will see greatness with any show performed at Holden Street and this show was no exception.
An emotional story told beautifully by Troy.
A must see show.,
