Unexpected, quirky and provocative, BALL & Other Funny Stories
About Cancer is a unique collection of performances about illness
and the changing body over time. Documenting a trilogy of Brian
Lobel's monologue performances from 2001-2011, this collection
challenges the inspirational stories of survivors and martyrs that
have come before, infusing the 'cancer story' with an urgency and
humour which is sometimes inappropriate, often salacious and
always, above all else, honest and open. Published together for the
first time, this collection of performances goes beyond the
chemotherapy to include reflections on politics, sexuality and
gender, providing cancer - and cancer narratives - with a
much-deserved kick in the ball(s).
