Description

Contrasting pandemic situations portrayed in a colourful collage of scenes and characters, this is a one-of-a-kind experience to witness. Through collaborative devising, the artists explore the patterns of behaviour of society and individuals in a time of catastrophe. While this stage of our lives might already seem distant, their artistic treatment emphasizes the experience of crisis rather than the event itself, as it desires to serve as a mirror to challenge opinions and call to new perspectives. Ultimately, the show, filled with both seriousness and humour, offers a collective therapy through art.

One of my favourite shows - warm, very funny, intelligent - so inventive ...absolutely original - I loved the commitment and equality of each and every member of the cast. I came away feeling a sense of healing from some of the trauma the pandemic left us with - I highly recommend it!

Loved this show from start to finish...inventive, amusing, thought-provoking, from a committed group of performers...the sort of show the fringe was meant for! A really engaging and funny show, with poignant moments...and a fantastic bikini scene! A must see show!

Really did not enjoy the show. It was immaturely written and poorly acted. Made no sense at all. Seemed very very unprofessional and a total waist of money. AVOID there are so many better shows #greenside #Slovakextreme

An engaging and comical piece of theatre that highlights the power of humanity amidst a COVID-19 world. People have struggled, yes, but they can also band together to showcase how we’ve survived and thrived against almost impossible odds. See this show. You’ll have an absolute blast and be reminded to appreciate what you have. Beautiful work.
