It’s about the places that make us and the places we make. It’s about growing up and moving away. It’s about where we’ve been and where we are now. It’s about belonging and not belonging. It’s about not fitting in and finding a place to fit in. It’s about here. It’s about there. It’s about me and it’s about you.
Join Phil in his journey as he recreates beer ads we have loved, the 1968 Rugby League Challenge Cup final, under-16s disco night at the Mecca ballroom, Wakefield, and his mum and dad’s silver-wedding party. This show is about the places we grow up in and the traces they may or may not leave; finding, losing and re-discovering roots.
Using popular performance forms A Good Neet Aht explores class, identity and belonging. It’s a kaleidoscope of experiences travelling through time and place with its feet placed firmly in the pit village of Phil’s youth. It’s at turns comic, reflective, celebratory and occasionally abrasive but always heartfelt.
What audiences have said:
‘Phil has the ability to fill your heart with joy …Reminiscent of the shiny jacketed turns in the clubs in the ‘80s with a smart contemporary edge.’
‘It’s a great, beautifully moving, warm and funny show’
‘There’s some wider meaning to be found in the ‘us and them’ mentality that feels very current.’
‘a phenomenal piece of writing and delivery’
‘Bloody loved it!’
Reviews:
‘a comedy show like no other’
‘Whatever your age you will find this show very funny … Green’s more serious undertone, disguised under his razor sharp observations, is also relatable if you happen to have ever felt the desire to breakaway … Well written, expertly devised and performed’
