Big Backstory - Brighton Fringe
Big Backstory
Big Backstory is a debut WIP show by Belgian artist Julian Gypens, combining stand-up comedy and contemporary dance to explore the amusing and fragile reality of living in a body that on a societal and scientific level has no ass... The show smashes two contradictory art-forms together in a daring balancing act. Where the tale of a man and his tragic separation from his rear-end is woven with choreography and gags. Can this comedian reunite with his long-lost buns, or is he cursed to dance with nothing to shake?
