Locker Room Talk is a provocative piece of event theatre. Inspired by Donald Trumps leaked sexually aggressive comments, the show is a confronting exploration of the phenomenon the then presidential candidate later dismissed as locker room banter. But can this be true Is this simply a loathsome individual or one who speaks to a silent majority Gary McNair wants to think we are better than this, and is having honest conversations with men about women to see if he is right or wrong. The words of these men are performed by a cast of women in this verbatim piece.
