What are you willing to forgive? You’ll find yourself asking that question as you watch comedian Adam Lazarus’s harrowing yet hilarious show. Landing uncomfortably between autobiography and fiction, Daughter is the story of one man’s struggle with love, anger and what’s come to be known as toxic masculinity.

As a new dad, Lazarus found himself facing all the usual challenges—and some that are, perhaps, unique to a particular type of man. He loved his daughter, and he tried to be gentle, to be kind, to be good with her… but somehow things went wrong. Looking back on his life, the comedian presents a story of rage, regret and reckoning that will both amuse and shock. Smart, incisive and sincerely remorseful, this is a performer who has learned his lesson—and earned the right to impart a few of his own.
