Teatr Davay presents: Stand Up and Fall — The Best of Peter Shub

A quasi-pseudo-autobiographical comedy about the lives of everyday objects: their destinies, fears, and unfulfilled hopes. A roll of toilet paper waits for its moment of glory. A corkscrew falls into a stupor. A tripod comes to life and takes its first awkward steps…

Peter is the world’s noisiest mime. A kaleidoscope of characters rushes before you: an old coat on a coat rack, a manic plant lover, and a victim of his own tripod. He dances, sings songs from cookbooks, manipulates umbrellas, and communicates with basil bushes. According to experts’ approximate estimates, the performance lasts exactly 60 minutes. What is this show really about? Well… about 60 minutes.
