ENGLISH BREAKFAST
AJ has started to contemplate the big questions in life – predominantly, how do you make the perfect cup of tea? His one-man show, English Breakfast, is an exploration of his upbringing, his mixed-race identity, his queerness and all the other pivotal parts of his life journey to date – to finally assess whether he’s found the ideal pot of tea, or whether perhaps the brew has turned sour.
English Breakfast premiered at the 2022 Sydney Comedy Festival. It received sold out audiences across it’s 4 show run and was included in the festival’s prestigious FRESH Program — a new-talent initiative to support Australia’s best emerging artists.
TimeOut
★★★★ “English Breakfast is a stand-up show, injected with silly radio play style soundbites, layered with beautiful storytelling, and dusted off with a mix of profoundly honest and vulnerable truths and a scattering of hilarious one-liners”
Theatre Travels
“[English Breakfast is] a roaring success, due to the open, welcoming presence Lamarque brings and the highly relatable, intelligently funny and gently hopeful content of his jokes. He has created a truly safe and cathartic collective experience that is nurturing, challenging and laugh-out-loud funny.”
Storycasters
“English Breakfast as a comedy show is new and original in the way it effortlessly spins together anecdotes with well-placed witticisms and criticisms. Lamarque will definitely have everyone laughing while instilling every individual with a reminder to be kinder and truer to oneself in the face of a society that is not always as warm…
