About the show
Returning from the USA, only child John Anthony Gorman (Daredevil, Lioness, Blacklist) clears out his late parents’ home in Glasgow in this autobiographical one-man show. Armed with cardboard boxes, he tackles each room layered with traditions, celebrations and heartache. Between the dust and daft keepsakes, every object sparks a story – from stealing his mum’s diamond earrings to be like David Beckham to pouring his dad's last Guinness. As the house empties, the past grows louder. Blisteringly funny and brutally honest, Woodcutter confronts what we can’t quite pack away while rediscovering what 'home' truly means.
