Description
Jeremy McClain (Pose on BBC/FX) stars in Rat Tails, a new one-man show directed by Matt McBrier. Set in an NHS maternity ward waiting room, Jasper – a neurotic, gay, American model agent – anxiously awaits the arrival of his baby. As he muses on his childhood and everything that got him to this moment, we follow this Southern-bred, Prozac-popping, biracial millennial who’s married into a wealthy, British aristocratic family as he explores themes of intergenerational trauma, mental health, gay culture, and class in this poignant and funny exploration of impending fatherhood.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

I cannot believe it took me son long to come and see this really nice play. The story is touching and well-told, and Jeremy's performance is simply amazing. Highly recommended!!

Both funny and moving, a great reflection of growing up gay and the mental health issues and insecurities that comes with that.
Jeremy shines in this multi character one man show, would definitely recommend!

A smart, funny and queer look at intergenerational and familial trauma. Genuinely hilarious and has some really moving moments throughout. Jeremy is a stellar performer!
