About the performance

It is our duty to be happy. Happy men, women and children on posters and in TV ads constantly show us easy ways to be happy. What is happiness, apart from its chemical makeup? Why is it so high on the ladder of contemporary values? And furthermore – why is happiness the only value that is not called into question, that is inherently good? Have you felt bad in the past month, have you felt depressed, sad, tormented or even hopeless? Have you been finding it hard to do things you usually enjoy doing? We have the solution:

Jure Novak: Reasons to be happy is a performance about depression, the performance for you.

If you buy a ticket now, you will also receive instant gratification. Offer valid while supplies last.
