Come see Jilberto Soto’s Edinburgh Fringe Show ¡Ay Papi! Preview. This is a one man show story about Fatherhood and Daddy Issues. Jilberto’s dad skipped his wedding, his brother just had a baby and everyone keeps asking when he’s having kids. He’s not. But he’ll deliver an hour of comedy about it: which honestly seems healthier. As a gay, first-generation Mexican American, Jilberto Soto examines the daddies who disappeared, the fathers that tried and the quiet pressure on men to step into the role... eventually. Big questions. Small family. One gay son with a lot to say.
