STILL HERE BY DAVE AND THE DAVE'S Written & performed by Dave Houston
‘You’ll struggle to find a more engaging theatrical solo performer at the Fringe than Dave Houston.’ Edinburgh Fringe Festival
This September the show is touring with the band - THE WHITE HORSE JAZZ CLUB
About the theatre show.
With depression and suicide stats at an all time high, with over 9 deaths per week in Australia comes a new music theatre show that is full of honesty, joy and heart. A depression comedy, featuring the versatile acting skills of Dave Houston, as he weaves multiple characters, elements of clown and stand-up comedy, live songs and honest vulnerable storytelling covering depression, suicide and recovery.
With songs across a range of genres from rock, to psyche folk, to punk, to folk, to lullaby the show gives a sideways wink to the world of theatre and unlike the Dr Seuss poem, Too Many Dave’s this show has just the right amount of Dave’s including Uncle David, the professional actor and show biz master, who can now only tour Seagulls and other Gold Coast clubs, Rave Dave King of Hip Hop, work for the dole stage manager Davo, and storyteller Dave who shares personal stories of drama school, depression, medication, love, loss and life.
Dave Houston, himself with a lived experience of mental health challenges has been acting and writing songs since he was 17. He took his first solo show to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, has made 6 studio albums and created theatre works for schools and festivals, performing around the world. Dave Houston bio The show runs for 60 minutes, travels with its own lighting rig (or plays theatres) and can include a post-show Q&A, complete with contacts for local support networks to refer on to audience members feeling moved to reach out.
Presented by Full-On Theatre, a touring company with over 34 years of touring experience, this production can play in theatres, pubs, health centres/yoga venues. Since it was founded in 1998 the company has created 22 original professional productions and over 30 community theatre works.
