If you lock two comics (not narcissists) in a room for an hour will they make the perfect piece of content? Or will the void open & thankfully swallow us all?
What happens when two sides of the same coin try to monetize that coin? If you stare long enough into the void & it stares back, is it now an audience for your work? (thanks for the follow void xx!!!) If a tree falls in the forest & there’s no one there to see it, did it even make content??? Honestly so sick of these trees trying to upstage me!! Does it even know what I’ve been through!?!
Obsessed with drafting and redrafting a single piece of content over an hour, two performers (not narcissists) invite you on a journey (not a hellscape) of fast-paced surreal comedy, quips, disintegration, technology and shameless grabs at relevancy.
Nemeses is the debut show of newly formed duo We Are Nemeses, featuring two of Australia's most exist-ing and moisturised comedians - Alistair Baldwin (Get Krack!n, The Weekly, Hard Quiz) and Vidya Rajan (ABC Comedy, Melbourne/Perth Fringe Award Winner, Malthouse Theatre's Writer In Residence).
