Hilarious and heart breaking, this remarkable road trip will delight and surprise.
Featuring James’ captivating mix of storytelling, comedy and music (as well as Shakespeare’s Hamlet) this remarkable road trip follows his critically acclaimed run at 2023’s Edinburgh Festival, the sell-out show Learning to Fly and The Songs of Friendship Trilogy.
James has been touring his storytelling theatre shows for half his adult life. This year was different though. Returning home after his first stint away, he received a letter that exploded his life, and the tour became a search: for the person who sent it, for a sense of home, and to maybe save a life.

"Jonny & the Baptists (actually a duo - Jonny Donahoe and Paddy Gervars) provide a fun hour or so of storytelling, songs and political satire. This cheeky foray is their take on politics and how their lives have played out alongside each prime minister.
The duo are a lot of fun, riffing off each other whilst getting lost in improvisation before bringing it back to their tales of finding their way as neuro-delightful people.
The songs are fun and the duo are extremely likeable which gives an extra gravitas when the more sombre moments of the story arrive but delightfully wraps up with a bonkers ending - don't want to give too much away - but there's a ghost, kinda!"
Make sure you have booked in for the latest DRAMA CLASSES at Mix Up Theatre throughout Scotland :)
