Clue Me In
Meet Henry. Henry’s trying to get his name out there as a performer, but how do you get audiences to really know you? Easy: put everything about yourself into a cryptic crossword puzzle and have a room full of strangers solve you one clue at a time! Don’t worry if you don’t know how, Henry will guide you through the tricks and traps of cryptic clues. But each answer is also another clue to your host. Henry will take you through his life, as a performer, as a late-diagnosed neurodivergent queer human, as an increasingly bewildered millennial, and as the kind of person who finds it easier to decode a puzzle than to make small talk. So bring your friends, bring your pens, and join this interactive performance that shows how human beings are the most incredible puzzles of all.
