About the Show

Feeling whipsawed? Depressed? Pissed off and ready to…? So am I!  

There’s nothing like an encounter with a stranger at a party to peel back the layers and – just maybe – find a tiny bit of hope within the chaos.  And so many questions!  

  “Can we just not… like… talk about Fascism?” 

 “Is the right to eat beef really in the 2nd Amendment?”    

If you make it past the chit chat, more questions: 

 “Maybe it’s time to drop the whole notion of Reality?” 

“Is it already too late?” 

And eventually… 

  “Why the two of us, right here, right now?” 


Artist Biography

Paul Sussman has written and performed a series of solo pieces through the eyes of Neanderthals, road-ragers, insects, Anabaptists, cannibals, and others who persist in the search for meaning. He’s entertained and provoked in theater festivals from Fundy to Fresno. Paul developed his unique approach to melodrama and farce through decades of work in financial management with Bay Area nonprofit organizations.  “Did She Really Say Tantrum Yoga?” is his third full-length solo show (following “The Wrong Kind of Pessimism” and “Beyond Belief”), entitling him to refer to himself in the third person.
