Please don’t make love to me, I’m exhausted

Lees deze pagina in het Nederlands

A humorous and moving journey full of recognition and alienation, both intimate and grand at the same time. A clown, a merman and a group of comedians each search in their own way for something to hold on to in a world that is going up in flames. Throughout, the same question keeps returning: how do you move forward when everything around you is shaking to its core?

Please don’t make love to me, I’m exhausted

In Please don’t make love to me, I’m exhausted, everyone is trying to survive by chasing small moments of happiness. A clown sits in an interrogation room, gazing tragically and comically into the distance although that may also be due to his smeared make-up. Stubbornly, he keeps folding balloon dogs while the questions continue to come. A merman drags himself forward, gasping for breath, longing for a few final drops of water to feel like a fish in water one last time. Meanwhile, two stand-up comedians desperately try to provoke laughter from an audience that stares back in icy silence.
