“If You’re a Man at Night…You Gotta Be a Man in the Morning” staged reading X reality TV show X pity party at The Brick Aux
In the wake of his cancelation after an unfortunate pissing-on-a-gas-station-in-Rio-and-lying-about-it debacle, a looming pandemic, a ban from swimming, and a disastrous marriage, Ryan L*chte starts to do crazy things in order to feel seen. He manifests a robot version of his wife, he fights his longtime rival Michael Ph*lps, he shows the audience snippets of his reality TV show, he begs for compliments.

But when someone is all goofy machismo and no interiority, how does he even begin to express the aching loneliness he experiences? Can we, the audience, help him? Can we, the audience, even relate to his plight? Is there a way for us to “create the ‘Lympics inside us,” as Ryan says? Gotta take a gander to the Brick Aux to find out, hunty…
