If you’ve got a broken arm, everyone accepts it is real. No one says, ‘You’re making it up’.

Dominic Berry is an international slam winning spoken word artist (Nuyorican Poetry Cafe, UK Superheroes of Slam).

A few years back, he rarely left his flat.

In this honest, funny, heartfelt show, Dominic speaks openly about his relationship with anxiety – forgetting how to breathe in the biscuit aisle of Tesco, talking with people who think you should ‘just cheer up’ and ultimately turning painful experiences into positive pieces of art.

“Really very inspiring. I love the seriousness and the humour.” – Benjamin Zephaniah

“Dominic is an exceptional force in the poetry and spoken word scene.” – John McGrath – Artistic Director, National Theatre Wales

One man and his kettle against the world!

When an agoraphobic Wizard shares his world of tea loving carpet goblins and a zombie slaying dish rack with a neighbour from the flat above, three days of magic change both their lives forever.

Poetry meets surreal humour in this exciting, new theatre show exploring how one person handles the modern mental health system.

Inspired by writer / performer Dominic Berry’s own experiences of anxiety attacks and institutional therapies, Wizard combines comedy, fantasy and imaginative theatre in a quest to find magic in even the darkest of places.
