Description

Ancestry takes an unexpected turn when a DNA test, a trip to Ellis Island, and some late-night googling leads American stand-up comedian Patrick Hastie to question the truth about his heritage and long-told family lore in this hilarious and compelling Edinburgh debut. Through stand up, storytelling and some light crowd-work Patrick examines how we interpret and maintain our relationships with our immediate family and our ancestors.
