A charmingly offbeat, surreal comedy of knitting, penguins and Battenberg.
Stitch is hitting the gay scene of Hull. Or at least dipping his toe in the water, while staying with his heavily pregnant sister Liz and her shabby sofa-loving partner Mark. But why won't Stitch let anyone into the bathroom even though Liz is dying for a pee? And who is the man in the giant penguin costume?
Me, As a Penguin premiered at the Arcola Theatre, London, in 2010.
This volume also features two monologues by Tom Wells, About a Goth and Notes for First Time Astronauts.
'a remarkable piece of writing, wry, witty and surreal' —WhatsOnStage

    I did. Sort of. Just. I’m not sure I’m. There’s days when you feel so buoyant and. Capable. Then something’ll just. I dunno. And you’re. Overwhelmed this. Sadness. Do you not hear it sometimes? Behind things, everything really, this, I dunno. This sad heart beating.

    STITCH. I had a good think last night. While I was projectile vomiting. And I decided, perhaps the gay scene of Hull isn’t for me. It’s the vodka, I think. Among other things. Honestly. I looked deep inside myself. And I just found: wool. I’m not a great one for nightclubs, not a party animal. Can’t imagine I ever will be. I don’t even like sex that much, to be honest. Rather have a good yoghurt. I think the best thing I can hope to do with my life is. Knitting.

    MARK. You don’t have to –

    STITCH. It’s alright. I like hanging round with old ladies in experimental cardigans. They’re nice. Kind. I fit in. Think they’ve even twigged about, you know. Always speak very highly of Dale Winton when I’m around, so. Perhaps I’d better just. Do that. For a bit.

    Pause.

    MARK. Well, I’m not convinced. I thought you wanted to be away from all that.

    STITCH. I did. Sort of. Just. I’m not sure I’m. There’s days when you feel so buoyant and. Capable. Then something’ll just. I
