Pieces of a Man

Pieces of a Man is a one-man show blending powerful storytelling and hilarious comedy to explore our deepest human issues.

David Labi’s late father was a Holocaust Survivor as a small child. A bombastic figure, he dragged his loved ones on his rollercoaster of a life. In Pieces of a Man, David brings us on his journey to make peace with his father.

Available alongside the performance is the immersive workshop experience, Exploring Parental Legacies, helping participants confront complex histories with creativity and joy.

Pieces of a Man has toured extensively in Europe and North America, including at iconic theatres, community centres, and major museums.
