About the show
A part of the Very trilogy – a sharp, auto-ironic performance inspired by Schubert’s Winterreise. It takes the form of a 'sit-up' show, because standing up is tiring already. Blending music, brutal honesty and dark humour, the performers explore aging bodies, psychophysical exhaustion, illnesses and the slow comedy of falling apart. Echoing the melancholy journey of Schubert’s song cycle, Very Sad turns vulnerability into punchlines and fatigue into rhythm. It’s intimate, absurd and strangely uplifting: very sad, and therefore very funny.
