DANIEL J. WATTS’ THE JAM: ONLY CHILD
Starring Daniel J. Watts
Featuring DJ Duggz
Directed by Lileana Blain-Cruz
A play-on-words, THE JAM: ONLY CHILD pays homage to Daniel Watts' great-grandmother who, after making jam from scratch, would share with others what she was unable to consume herself. THE JAM: ONLY CHILD is Watts' continuation of that legacy blending elements of stand-up comedy and compelling storytelling with his original spoken word, often set to music and/or dance.
“THE JAM: ONLY CHILD is the product of two years of therapy," says Watts. "I have an analogy about therapy suggesting that it's like inviting a stranger to the attic of your mind and having them help you clean it out. I realized that being an only child and a latchkey kid in a single parent home contributed to excess storage in my attic and therapy helped me sift through a lot of it and, ultimately, let some things go. By sharing my story I hope to inspire others to go through their attics in an effort to both examine the cost of holding on and experience the healing power of letting go."
