Measure of a Man

The 86 & Gavin Roach present

The Measure of a Man

Following hugely successful seasons in Melbourne, Sydney, Perth and Hobart and before the show tours to Brisbane and Prague, Gavin Roach returns to Melbourne with a ONE NIGHT ONLY performance of The Measure of a Man.

How do you measure a man? Is it the way he walks, the way he talks? Told in Roach's humorous, raw and deeply candid style, The Measure of a Man will stare into the heart of one man's sexual anxieties and pull out the stories we try to shy away from – stories often shrouded in embarrassment or shame.

The Measure of a Man is a perfectly-balanced blend of comedy and drama – from light-hearted and uproariously funny moments to gut-wrenching dark moments that expose the scars and open wounds that still remain, hidden underneath the glitter. The Measure of a Man is unmissable – if there is a show that will enchant, enlighten and exhilarate in equal measure it is Gavin Roach’s The Measure of a Man.

“The performance is always strong and the explicit reflections on sexual meanderings are extremely insightful” – Stage Whispers

“An excellent piece of work, which highlights Gavin Roach as an artist to watch” – The Australia Times
