Holes in the Shape of My Father is a poetic and emotionally charged solo performance by Savon Bartley that delves into the complexities of growing up, manhood, and the echoes of generational pain. Told entirely through verse, this intimate and rhythmically rich piece weaves together spoken word, vulnerability, and raw storytelling. Developed at The Public Theater and featured in the Under the Radar Festival, Bartley’s one-man show explores themes of fatherhood, masculinity, and the emotional inheritance passed from one generation to the next with lyrical honesty and powerful depth.
