A man in a dark suit plays a ukulele while holding a pencil between his teeth. He stands against a split background of a brick wall and fantasy drawings of castles, dragons, and unicorns, with a bright pink flower pinned to his lapel.
A man with a full beard and neatly styled hair stands onstage, wearing a dark three-piece suit and tie. He plays a small stringed instrument, holding it confidently while looking toward the audience with a slight smile. A microphone stands in front of him, and the background is a dark curtain, giving the scene a formal performance atmosphere.
A man in a suit stands against a brick wall, looking down at the objects in his hands: a syringe in one hand and a red rose in the other.

Upside Down Fantasyland

Upside Down Fantasyland is a raw and poetic exploration of Troy Rogers journey from the shadows of his past to the light of his future.

Troy vulnerably takes the stage to share his experiences of growing up in out-of-home care. His childhood shaped by the trauma of drug-related struggles and a life with his grandmother due to his parents' substance abuse. It's a clever and seamless delivery, dynamically performed through poetry, song and prose

In this deeply personal performance, Troy delves into the complexities of his past with honesty and courage, while balancing the heavy material with humour and love.

Upside Down Fantasyland offers an unflinching look at resilience, healing, and the bittersweet nature of growing up in a world turned upside down.
