The irreverent and award-winning writer Jamie Brickhouse returns to the stage with I Favor My Daddy, a hilarious and deeply human show where he explores life, secrets and unexpected connection with his eccentric father in a story full of humor, confessions and unforgettable moments.
Celebrated gay memoirist Jamie Brickhouse returns with a hilarious deep dive into the life of his Daddy. ”Earl aka "Daddy Poo" adored bikinis and martinis as much as Jamie, his homosexual alcoholic son. Was he a sodomite lush too? I Favor My Daddy: A Tale of Two Sissies is Jamie's quest to discover “who’s your gay daddy?” It’s the follow-up to his critically-acclaimed and multi-award-winning solo show, Dangerous When Wet: Booze, Sex, and My Mother, which he performed to wild applause at Art Vallarta Theater in 2025. That show was about Jamie’s drinking and sexuality, and his Texas tornado of a mother Mama Jean. I Favor My Daddy is about Jamie’s daddy and his drinking and his sexuality. Daddy Poo is an octogenarian, ribald Catholic conservative accepting of his son’s homosexuality and arrested alcoholism, but is he in denial about his own? After he dies suddenly Jamie struggles to realize that the constant postmortem refrain of the folks down in his hometown of Beaumont,Texas—“You favor your daddy,”—is true from his skin down to his marrow. The theatrical love child of David Sedaris and Leslie Jordan, Jamie is the kind of guy you’d like to meet at a boring cocktail party to liven things up. . . this award-winning show by a champion storyteller is a fun ride through an unconventional life.
