About Léa Tirabasso
Léa Tirabasso presents this uncompromising, surrealistic dance and physical theatre piece at Main Hall as part of Edinburgh Festival Fringe. Plunged into an absurd world, the show celebrates the incomprehensible and magnificent contradictions of life. Quirky and witty, it mocks the idea of human exceptionalism and questions our humanity with ferocious joy. The show runs for 60 minutes and carries multiple content warnings including nudity and scenes of a sexual nature.
Why see this show?
A surrealistic physical theatre piece that questions human exceptionalism with wit and ferocious joy rather than solemnity. Léa Tirabasso brings a boldly European choreographic sensibility to the Fringe.
