Something new from Comedy Kiss: comedy theater in the form of "Don Toberman—Ping Pong Champ.” The show follows the journey of Don Toberman at the height of his ping-pong career, trying to become the worlds most decorated ping-pong player. While things initially look bright, his newest sponsor Bolt Booster Energy Drink quickly takes things off the rails. As Toberman stares potential defeat in the eyes, the audience begins to absurdly confront the cost of greatness, darkness of winning, and the existential burden of loss. It’s a wildly hilarious fever-dream you won’t forget.
It's an award-winning showdown where Don Toberman—played by Gaulier-trained performer Chase Brantley—takes on the entire audience in a pantomime ping-pong championship for glory. It’s absurd, athletic, sensitive and totally unhinged. Sports parody, physical comedy, and heroic pathos collide in one epic match.
The show is entirely in English; doors open at 19:30, so arrive early, grab a drink, and reserve the best seats.
