Rich Hardisty: Silly Boy
Through captivating tales and a magnetic performance, Rich shares the highs and lows of his eventful and peculiar life, revealing how his mental illnesses affect him. Silly Boy explores themes such as anorexia, bipolar disorder, self-harm, borderline personality disorder and heroin abuse. But as dark as the subjects may be, the show is not heavy, more a celebration of the beauty and silliness of it all, and the interesting, riotous, and sometimes shocking things his brain is capable of doing - whether he wants it to or not.
Rich does everything he can to bring you into his world with the show's finale described as crossing over from stand-up comedy into performance art...and being one of the most electrifying endings to a comedy show you will see.
