All Hell is Breaking Loose, Honey is an unconventional male quartet that tackles with great candor the disarray of the North American cis man, his ridicule, his stupidity, his vanity, his excessive violence, but also his vulnerability, his confusion and his aspiration to become better.
A series of vignettes and little scenes, the play the play unfolds in an irresistible spiral of bodies and music, from which emerge unassuming, bewildered, out-of-phase characters, in a drunken stupor of beer and helplessness.
All Hell is Breaking Loose, Honey is an unrestrained, reckless plunge into the darkness of men grappling with their thousands of demons inherited from a thousand years of heavy, age-old patriarchy. A generous, rallying piece that uncompromisingly embraces the ill-being of contemporary man.
