I Favor My Daddy at Kraine Theater

Jamie Brickhouse (voices on Beavis and Butthead; four-time Moth SLAM champ, New York Times published author) returns to the FRIGID Festival with his second solo show, I Favor My Daddy, on the heels of a sold out run at FringeNYC 2018, the New York International Fringe Festival where it was awarded Best Bet in a rave review by Theater is Easy. Its the follow-up to his critically-acclaimed and multi-award-winning solo show, Dangerous When Wet: Booze, Sex, and My Mother. That show was about Jamies drinking and sexuality, and his Texas tornado of a mother Mama Jean. I Favor My Daddy is about Jamies father Earl aka Daddy Poo and his drinking and sexuality. With this show, Ive flipped the artistic process, says Brickhouse. I wrote and published Dangerous When Wet the memoir first. This time, I Favor My Daddy the show comes out first. See it before its a book! Daddy Poo is an octogenarian, ribald Catholic conservative accepting of his sons homosexuality and arrested alcoholism, but is he in denial about his own? After he dies suddenly Jamie struggles to realize that the constant postmortem refrain of the folks in townYou favor your daddy,is true from his skin down to his marrow. Is Jamie all the things Daddy Poo was, but didnt quite become: gay, alcoholic, writer? Is Jamie the full-blown version of Daddy Poo?
