Heavy Meta
An hour of x-comedy at the limits of logic, language and cognition.
Heavy Meta is an hour of x-comedy about a comedian who loves self-referential humour: humour that refers back to itself, like this sentence. He also feels guilty for not having relatable things to talk about, or a higher message. Which he might find, with your help.
Meta as in meta-humour, meta-comedy, meta-theatre. Not Meta as in Mark Zuckerberg.
It is Cristian Boscheri’s first full-length show without dance, although he may still move. He calls the form x-comedy: self-referential humour, clowning, small-scale physical comedy and play with the audience. The x is a placeholder, because he doesn’t know yet which word belongs there.
