Who, Me.
Doctor Who is about to face his greatest challenge: his number one fan. Rob Lloyd (The Hounds,The Mutant Way, A Study in Scarlet (A Study of...) and Fan Number One) is putting the Doctor on trial.
Not just for Doctor Who fans, its a show about obsession and its many faces. What have you been obsessed with a celebrity, a football team, a TV show? For Rob, its Doctor Who all the way.
He will be asking the BIG questions. Investigating whether Doctor Who (the television show) is guilty of inciting in him a debilitating obsession, or whether it has shaped him into a well-rounded, mentally sound member of society. Since 1996 Rob Lloyd has dedicated himself to amassing as much Doctor Who knowledge, well as videos, DVD, novels, audios, action figures and assorted paraphernalia as he can afford. With his replica Jon Pertwee era sonic screwdriver in hand and dressed in his 10th Doctor get up he is ready to jump head first into finding out how and why he got here!
Built up through improvisation and storytelling techniques, this one-man show is a personal and fitting tribute to a television icon. Through the course of the show we will see how one TV program can influence a persons actions, behavior and psyche. You dont need to be a Doctor Who fan to relate to this show, it speaks to anyone who has known obsession. Its a hilarious romp across the Doctors 48 years, 11 faces and countless adventures.
