Move over Masters Open contenders, and big league golfers. Aaron McIlroy, South Africa’s Master of Mirth, is taking to the greens in his all-new, one-man, laugh-a-line stage comedy, The Golfer.
Co-written and directed by Steven Stead, McIlroy’s new show is set to send the ball whizzing into orbit with a series of sketches unveiling life on and off the course. First and last in the line-up is Aaron’s alter ego, Truscott Price, that motivational guru of The Loser fame. Truscott now makes a major comeback as a sports psychologist… and The Secret has nothing on him.
We also get to meet the archetypal golf widow, an expert in bedroom golf; the spandex-clad, fashionista, previewing his custom-made range for his A-list clientele; and the real-estate power pitcher with a hotline to the latest in politically correct golfing estates.
“The show’s all about living the dream”, says Aaron. “The mission is to promote the Reach for a Green Foundation, which works towards the emancipation of the working man..”
Aaron’s legions of fans from his previous shows (DOF, Abbamaniacs, Mr Personality, The Stand-up, Defending the Planet, The Magnificent 7) are strongly advised to book early for The Golfer. This premieres at the Heritage Theatre in Hillcrest from 2 September, and runs to 5 October.
