Chris Duke 1 Missed Call
Musicals and Opera
12+
A missed call. A quick call back. 'I’m fine'. This one-man musical unfolds entirely through phone calls that become songs, charting one ordinary evening as the cracks begin to show. An ex who has moved on. A father he cannot impress. A friend he has drifted from. Each conversation peels back another layer of pressure, expectation and self-doubt. The music shifts as the mask slips, blending sharp humour with raw honesty. At its heart, this is a story about masculinity, silence, fatherhood and the quiet weight many men carry, even when they insist they are coping.
