Storytelling, Music, Fringe

New Wave Your Behaviour


A Gen X man starts having unexpected anxiety episodes at work, prompting a mental health leave and reluctant sessions with a therapist. At the same time, he begins obsessively listening to New Wave synth pop from the early 1980’s in his car. Soon he’s writing strange songs with his tiny keyboard and drum machine. Is he going mad? Or has he discovered something that might just save us all? Energetically delivered by veteran storyteller and musician Tor Lukasik-Foss, ‘New Wave Your Behaviour’ was hailed as ‘a revelatory journey, as much through music as through actual storytelling’ during its sold out 2023 Hamilton Fringe debut!
