Searching for Robert Hennessey
A little boy answers every doorbell hoping it's his daddy. Decades later, after surviving sexual abuse, cult indoctrination and a terminal AIDS diagnosis, that boy – now a man – still hasn't stopped searching. Armed with a name his teenage mother gave him and unwavering determination, Michael calls every Robert Hennessey he can find, chases DNA matches, tries Beetlejuicing the guy into existence and never gives up hope. Until Father's Day 2020 brings a Facebook message shattering everything he thought he knew about his identity and his quest. Hollywood Fringe's sold-out sensation comes to Edinburgh.
