A semi-autobiographical piece about Bootworks artistic director Andy Roberts’s obsession with the film Terminator 2.

Presented by BOOTWORKS THEATRE

Most families share everything under one roof; even their son’s stupid obsessions.

Now Listen To Me Very Carefully is a semi-autobiographical piece about Bootworks artistic director Andy Roberts’s obsession with the film Terminator 2. He estimates he has watched the film roughly 238 times in his lifetime; spending almost a month of his 28 years sat in front of it. So he knows it fairly well.

As a teenager, Terminator 2 was all he had to guide him through his adolescence... so using stand-up comedy devices, storytelling and participation Andy will transport the audience back to that delicate age when girls were a mystery, make believe was everything, and the future was yet to be written. Most families share everything under one roof; (and in this case) even their son’s stupid obsessions.
