Daisy Doris May brings How to Flirt: The TED XXX Talk to Soho Theatre

Actor, writer and Drag King Daisy Doris May is to bring her solo show How to Flirt: The TED XXX_mas Edition to Soho Theatre this winter.

Following a successful Edinburgh Fringe 2023 run, the show will run at the London venue from 14 – 16 December 2023.

Produced by Häus of Dons, May’s alter ego Guildfordian Steve Porters teaches the audience how to flirt in this hilarious one-person show, which examines gender binaries, toxic masculinity – and how to spoon.

Want to learn how to be the ultimate ladies man? How do you get to the next base? Don’t panic – iPod DJ and self-taught feminist Steve has got you covered. Steve’s heart is in the right place. He is doing his absolute best. However, his naïve outlook can be problematic. The audience is taken on a journey full of heart, drag and utter silliness as Steve learns what is okay and what absolutely isn’t.

This totally silly and totally poignant one-person drag show asks what kind of behaviour we accept – in public and in private. How to Flirt encourages the audience to think about who or what you have modelled your behaviour on, examining upbringing and gender binaries all through the hilarious lens of Steve’s TED XXX Talk. Ultimately the show is a proclamation of vulnerability, consent and self-love.
