ANATOMICA: A Comedy About Meat, Bones, & The Skin You’re In
The following description was submitted by the event organizer.
International Comedian and Weird-Lil’-Gremlin Amica Hunter (they/them) gets under your skin and crushes your funnybone in this hilarious, captivating, and sometimes unsettling comedy about skeletal systems and the horrors of living in a body. ANATOMICA is an intimate, unpredictable exploration of pain, zoology, and collective imagination.
Every animal has a skeleton — but which biological structural system is the best? With candidness and a comfortably casual tone, Amica reviews the three skeletal systems found in earthly organisms and discusses the limitations of each one. What would it be like to inhabit a body completely alien from our classic human form? A gloriously deranged Ted-Talk by a wanna-be scientist clown school graduate.
Part stand-up, part storytelling, and part clown, ANATOMICA is an investigation of the inadequacies of different animal body models, and a celebration of the absurdity of being trapped in a body that is limited by pain, fatigue, and ultimately decay. But, you know, make it fun.
