Not Tony

Gary Stevens performs Not Tony as part of Leeds festival Juncture, curated this year by Wendy Houstoun.

Not Tony is presented as part of a double bill with Lucy Suggate’s Liquid Gold and Louise Wallinger’s Annoying the Neighbours.

Not Tony is a comedy, quick-change hat routine, where single items (a hat, a beard, a wig or glasses) represent different members of a family. All speak with the same voice as an ambiguous internal/external conflict is played out. An unnamed, unknown identity emerges in the space between the other established characters. This alien entity was a residue that can only be defined negatively as not any of the others.
