TALL MARK'S EAT IT ANYWAY
There is an affable foolishness about Tall Mark that is uniquely distinct. Not unlike an Animaniac or character from a 90's cartoon, his quirky songs, delightful attitude and shameless silliness make this production unique, charming and a positively delightful experience.
While initially presenting as a collection of silly songs with an overarching theme of 'FOOD!', layers slowly emerge of dealing with disability, radical self acceptance and isolation in the modern age.
He brandishes a range of instruments and swaps between them rather effortlessly in a simple set up that is both effective and showy without ever feeling gimmicky. He's got a lot of talent, and the repertoire reminds me of the some of the best bits from Arrogant Worms. A truly Canadian, folky silly gem that needs to be cherished and experienced.
And also- he is tall.
