Humour is humans’ privilege. There are examples for cheerfulness, play and fun in the world of animals, too but generating funny things intentionally is the nature of Homo sapiens. A giraffe doesn’t wonder how to joke a lion or make his mates laugh and a meerkat cannot laugh when his companion falls. We can. Humour is a gift for mankind, it entertains us and many times it manages stress. Its source is many times our own stupidity, peccadillo regarding the individual or the mankind.

The new mutual evening by Ádám Kiss and Dénes Benk is based on this theory. The production examines the disadvantages of human evolution especially that the thinking human has to cope with huge burdens (advertisements, front pages, courses, lifestyle tips, etc,) which are full of controversies. We know what is good and bad, healthy or harmful, still we get lost in the tsunami of information and our decisions are not always the best. Maybe that’s why we got the ability to laugh, to take it easy and accept our burdens and faults.
