THIS IS NOT A SHOW. THIS IS A DISORDER.

Written by a mad person, for mad people. That’s Not My Name completely desecrates the concept of normality as its writer refuses to conform to theatrical conventions, defies description and desecrates mainstream mental health narratives.

 

Using their lived experience of madness, Sammy began to write TNMN whilst in a psychiatric hospital: where they started pretending to rehearse stand-up instead of talking out loud to themselves in order to appear sane.

 

Since 2022 the show has both baffled and delighted critics and audiences alike after a across the board sellout UK Tour and Edinburgh Fringe run (Zoo Venues, 2024).
