Sauna Boy written & performed by Dan Ireland-Reeves
At Stage Door Theatre until 1st June 2024
I first saw Dan Ireland-Reeves’ work back in 2018. His one man play, Bleach, was an uncompromising look into the world of rent boys. His latest show is similarly in your face and is a semi-autobiographical delve into the hidden world of gay saunas.
Set in a fictional south coast sauna (fictional for legal reasons), this one man show lifts the lid on the place where men from all walks of life come to relax, socialise and ……
Everybody from young twinky virgins to seasoned older men come through the doors and each has a story to tell.
Dan Ireland-Reeves deftly switches from character to character, from voice to voice with barely a swish of his hand as each of his (fictional, remember) punters and co-workers play their part in his story.
With broad adult language, as is to be expected from those who flock to this sex club, and partial nudity (Ireland-Reeves’ pert bum gets a good airing) this is not for the faint hearted.
Having toured around the world this show is ending its 2024 run with another show at Stage Door Theatre this weekend, an outing in Southampton and a last few performances in Birmingham in July. All dates are on his website.
