Very Cheap

Fat and Dumb • Professional company

60 minutes•Big (End On)
A part of the Very trilogy, Very Cheap is a dazzling cabaret-philosophical ride about capitalism and the price of art. Fat and Dumb boldly compare creating art to sex work, exposing how both are shaped by performance, demand and the elusive promise of “authenticity.” With sharp humour and theatrical flair, they explore desire, value, and what it really means to sell yourself in a system that turns talent, emotions, even the body – into a commodity. Playful, biting and deeply relevant, Very Cheap makes you laugh while questioning the cost of creativity in today’s market-driven world.
