Saturday 7 February – SadoMusical
Tickets at badhuistheater.weticket.io/sadomusical/
Two self-absorbed artists take on the challenge of a lifetime: to create music with feeling—while feeling the real pain of electrocution.
The “definitely not masochistic” duo take their audience on a darkly farcical journey that will never be forgotten—and that they may never recover from.
In maybe their worst idea yet, veteran musical improvisers Lee Apsey (‘CSI: Crime Scene Improvisation,’ ‘Your Flaws: The Musical!’) and Jayda Fogel (‘¡Horario Estelar!’ ‘Bird & Tax Collector’) take inspiration from the audience to create hilarious and sincere songs, sketches and stories on the spot with the added challenge of being strapped to electro-shock devices, judged by a parental stand-in, and being beaten by an elderly woman with a stick.
Special guests may also appear to hammer down on their poor life choices.
You’ll be shocked, and so will the players—literally.
