A celebration of manhood. What do we feel, what do we show, what do you see? The Pappy Show are throwing themselves head first into exploring this question with a cast of young men of colour, sharing their stories, their experiences, their hopes.
From our tenderness to our silliness, our strength to our vulnerability, from the way we walk to the pitch of our voice we are young men whose communities, families and heritage span the entire world. We want to show the things about boys that you don’t always get to see.
