In this comic opera, audiences will be treated to a captivating narrative that unfolds in two acts. The storyline cleverly weaves together themes of celebrity culture and societal voyeurism, centered around a man whose attempted suicide is set to be broadcast live on television. As he navigates his decision to go through with it or not, the dark humour and sharp wit of the script promise a thought-provoking yet entertaining experience.

Elena Langer’s composition draws from the Russian theatrical tradition, adapting Nikolai Erdman's once-banned play into a contemporary critique of fame and public spectacle. The combination of music and humour provides a unique lens through which to examine both personal and societal issues surrounding obsession with celebrity status.

The performance will take place at the London Coliseum, with tickets starting from £27.20. Ticket-holders should check the timing of the show as well as any entry requirements. Information on accessibility options and amenities within the venue should also be considered for a comfortable experience.
