L’Addition plays out like a deranged game of telephone, except that the message being passed is a single scene on an increasingly distorted loop: A man at a café orders a drink. A waiter pours the drink. And a waiter pours the drink. And he cannot stop pouring the drink. Each escalation of the otherwise everyday scenario introduces a more outlandish set of circumstances.

Directed by Forced Entertainment Artistic Director Tim Etchells, one of the most influential forces in European theatre in recent decades, and created with the brilliant physical theatre duo Bert and Nasi, L’Addition orchestrates a complex, hilarious, and explosive performance from simple materials. Together, the three of them play with the mechanisms of theatre as much as with power relationships. In the end, someone has to pay the bill.
