This Can’t Be It is a chaotic, playful, clown “piece” delving into our futile efforts to make sense of life, through the eyes of a neurodivergent man who is incapable, yet desperate, to become someone.

Perpetually derailed, deluded, and paralysed by overwhelm, Big Loz Dodd arrives to do something very special indeed - something that might just deliver the kind of profound insight that shakes our ‘contemporary situation’ to its core.

Blending performance art and contemporary clowning, This Can’t Be It is a semi-improvised, feverish & open hearted exploration of how we stay open to the mystery when everything is closing us down. 

Directed by Lara Ricote and with Rachael Dobbie on tech.
