Seabrooke’s Theatre at Durban High School is hosting Love Sex Fleas God (Confessions of a Stay-at-Home Dad), starring popular Cape Town-based actor David Muller, from Wednesday, September 14.

Directed by Celia Musikanth, Love Sex Fleas God is more than just the confessions of a stay-at-home father. Muller (playing Bruce) in his and Musikanth’s adaptation of Bruce Clark’s book of the same title, traces Bruce’s life from childhood to fatherhood.

It’s a journey from the stranglehold of a cult upbringing, to freedom and self-discovery which is frequently punctuated with comic and witty moments.

In this engaging one-man show, Muller morphs from one role to the next, as the audience witnesses a transcendence from a down-and-out abused teenager to a loving father of two children.

As the story unfolds, the versatile Cape Town actor also essays the protagonist’s grandmother and mother, as Bruce’s insightful supportive wife allows him to be far more than just a stay-at-home dad. The metamorphosis from an insecure and angry young man to proud father is inspirational and makes for absorbing theatre.

Love Sex Fleas God (Confessions of a Stay-at-Home Father) opens at Seabrooke’s Theatre on the Durban High School campus in Musgrave on September 14 at 7pm, and runs till Saturday, September 24.
