He tries his best with girls. He tries his best with mates. But for all his efforts, things just dont seem to be going right. So hes making a change. Somethings triggered him to stand up for himself and reassert his worth. They made him feel small but with just a few clicks he'll become the biggest thing on the internet. But does he have the balls to go through with it? Ballistic is a darkly-comic thriller that asks vital questions about the violent events that increasingly define our 21st century narrative. "Mark Conway gives an astounding performance. This truly is a wonderfully powerful show." ★★★★★ Broadway Baby "Ballistic is an inventive and elegant work of storytelling that offers an accomplished example of the power of theatre." ★★★★★ The Reviews Hub "This is a masterful piece of theatre the writing is clean and clever, the staging is resourcefully sparse and aesthetically beautiful, and even when you anticipate the ending, the impact is still like a punch to the stomach. Im not going to forget this play for a long time." ★★★★★ Stage Talk Magazine "Mixes humour and tragedy and kept the audience on the edge of their seats. Highly recommended." ★★★★ One4Review "Ballistic is a dark and thought-provoking show that leaves audiences questioning the cruelties of the modern world." ★★★★ EdFringe Reviews This is a blistering and important responseThe production is faultless A Feminists Guide to the Festival Ballistic is a clever, impressively acted and effectively designed one-man show A Younger Theatre Age guidance 16+ (strong language & mature themes) Running Time: 60 mins Directed by Anna Marsland & Alex Packer Performed by Mark Conway Produced by Euan Borland Designed by Frances Roughton Lighting Design by Peter Tomes
