IN THE LOUNGE Dandy Darkly’s Myth Mouth! A HOT! Fest preview by Dandy Darkly

About This Show
Dandy Darkly’s Myth Mouth! explores themes of religious extremism, substance abuse and our contemporary worship of social media via allegorical tales concerning a junkie Persephone, combat space pup Laika, virtual reality celebrity obsession and humanity’s premier popinjay Cha-Cha the Caveman. Dandy Darkly cites folklorist Joseph Campbell, recent celebrity deaths, his childhood love of mythology and personal struggles with substance abuse as influences for writing Dandy Darkly’s Myth Mouth!
Dandy Darkly is a satirist with an unwavering commitment to social commentary. In past shows, Dandy has tackled difficult issues such as gun violence, misogyny, gentrification and political correctness. Dandy’s delirious delivery shifts seamlessly between camp panache and caustic bitchery and is utterly unlike anything else out there.
