Tom Corradini: Mister Jackpot
Fruitmarket45 Market Street
Until 21 Sept · £5
About this event
06.08.2026 — 21.08.2026. 15:15. Daily. £5-12. Mister Jackpot lives in Lexington, Kentucky. He leads a double life — on one side the monotony of a job at a garden equipment company, on the other the dream of being a winner like James Bond: money, women, luxury cars. A chance encounter with a slot machine unlocks his darkest side. What begins as excitement becomes obsession. A tragicomic journey into the mind of a compulsive gambler — and the inner demon he has made a deal with. DIRECTOR’S NOTES: Gambling addiction is one of the most invisible of dependencies — it develops inside socially accepted behaviour, hidden behind the thrill of the game. I wanted to explore this world from the inside: not as a moral lesson, but as a human story. The story of a man who wanted to win everything — and lost himself instead.
