Big Red Button by Jay Eddy

On a livestream from JJ’s kitchen, what begins as an unboxing video becomes something stranger: a personal exploration of sexual attraction and gender, of formative childhood memories and adult acts of remembering, of Barbie Dolls and Disney Villains, of plastic and flesh. JJ navigates the shifting landscapes of desire between “Do I want to be you?” and “Do I want to be with you?” and maybe, finally, to “Do I want to EAT you?”

    “ This script stirred up some major nostalgia and took it in directions I wasn’t expecting. I bet the end would be a fascinating sight on stage! Well done. ”

    “ I want to watch all of JJ's YouTube videos from now until the end of time. This monologue is a gem — Hitting all the 'what makes a monologue' marks and then bringing us to exquisite company with this delightful human who is here to help us get it all sorted. JJ for President! JJ for *everything*. A beautiful journey that we get to sidekick, like Abu. Or Raja. Anyway, read it, smile, feel better about life and the universe, and understand the reference. Superb work! ”
