Overview

Aberdeen Queer Arts Festival: Dan Wye Am I Sam Smith?

Have you experienced the intensity of being famous without any of the perks? Been doppelgäng-banged to the point you no longer exist?

Lube up for this deep dive into fame and misfortune, accidental celebrity identity theft and being simultaneously on the cusp of tragic and iconic at all times.

A hilarious debut hour from one of the country’s most prominent comedy / cabaret performers, the award-winning Dan Wye AKA Séayoncé. Exploring the power and joy in your identity and the absurd reality of it being taken away by someone with four Brit awards.

Directed by Lee Griffiths
