Bert & Nasi: L'Addition
LowryPier 8, The Quays
Fri 23 Oct · 20:00
About this event
Two performers armed with (or trapped in) a single scene – a customer orders a drink from a waiter. And then things go awry. Played again and again, the scene starts spinning out of control. Nightmarish spiral or grotesque farce? Roles flip back and forth. Who's serving and who's being served? Directed by Forced Entertainment artistic director Tim Etchells, and created with the brilliant performance duo Bert and Nasi, L’Addition orchestrates a complex hilarious and explosive performance from simple materials. Together, the three of them play with the mechanisms of theatre as much as with power relationships — but in the end, someone has to pay the bill. Book Tom Cassani and Bert & Nasi for £20. Add both shows to your basket to access the joint £20 ticket.

A different kind of night
Not the same tradition as the lineage above — a genuinely different thread to pull, if you want one.
