About
Join Rowan For Now, at this years Brighton Fringe Festival, as they explore what it means to outgrow yourself – shedding the skins of strict narratives and peeling back everything they knew to be true. Through nostalgic imagery, storytelling, lip-sync, humour, and chaos, Rowan reveals the freedom and grief that emerge when normative paradigms begin to unravel.
"When I was a child I dreamt of happily ever after. When I was 27 my dreams came true. Somewhere along the way, I realised my dreams were not my own.”
That’s Just The Way It’s (un)Done is an abstract autobiographical theatrical cabaret that dances through the dangers of heteronormative conditioning into a world of queer fluidity.
Developed as part of Rowan’s MA in Queer Performance, this piece continues to evolve, much like its creator. This iteration is both a performance and a process, part ritual, part revelation. It invites audiences into an experience of untangling and reimagining. A queer Happily Never After.
