Multidisciplinary performance artist Adrienne Truscott and Dublin-based performance makers Brokentalkers have tickled Edinburgh Fringe, and the world, with Masterclass. Now it’s slinging its rifle, polishing its loafers and heading for RISING. 
The show begins as a playful parody of the tweed-clad cult of male genius. Then things take a turn for the meta in the second act when the satire zooms in on “half-baked male allyship”. All-round good guy Fieldlim Cannon plays a blazer-clad talk show host interviewing a Hemingway-esque writer (Truscott) who&#39;s espousing a masterclass on playwriting. 
It’s a savage, big-wigged comedy that scuffs the varnish of privilege and power.

Two performers are on stage facing the audience. One stands behind the other with their head over the other's shoulder. They are in old-school suits wearing wigs and stick-on moustaches
