Get A Grip is a semi-autobiographical one-man dark comedy (two man, if you count the puppet) about a young man reflecting on his childhood and how he fell into porn addiction. Benjy is very passionate about sharing his story and raising awareness surrounding porn use and addiction in young people. He wants this show to help those who need it. Because growing up is hard. Especially when your younger self won't shut up and your older self is always hard.
