NippleJesus

Written by Nick Hornby
Adapted for the stage and performed by Shane Morgan

Taken from the collection Speaking with the Angel (Penguin Books, 2000), NippleJesus is a story of a man, a Messiah and thousands of nipples, written from the point of view of a bouncer turned art gallery guide.

Dave Freeman is a 6ft 2", 15 stone Everyman, who, after a couple of nasty moments as a bouncer, decides to take the more cerebral position of art gallery guide. Unbeknown to him, he is about to become a pawn in contemporary artists’ games of intolerance and retribution.

Nick Hornby (About a Boy, High Fidelity) presents an honest, funny and totally biased tale of contemporary art, religion and the true definition of pornography.
