Inspired by a book of letters and stories left to him by his late father, titled ‘For Jacob’, Stop Trying To Look At My D**k! is an autobiographical dark comedy of Jacob Grunberger’s adolescence.
Through anecdotes and rap music, Jacob tells the story of the sudden death of his Jewish father when he was a child and a peripatetic childhood through Scotland and Essex as he and his mother struggled to keep afloat.
Exploring challenges and encounters with drugs and mental darkness as an adult student, Jacob discusses how conversations around his father's death have always taken place in a context that he hasn’t designed.
As a reflection of life, Jacob creates a space to honour his father and his experience of grief, identity and vulnerability.
