Imaginary Friends
Welcome to the warped mirror world of Imaginary Friends, award-winning writer-performer Daniel Bye’s first solo show for seven years. This is a major event.
After a personal tragedy, a floundering TV comic starts listening to the wrong voices in his head. They’re terrible people, and he knows it. But the ideas they’re coming up with for his failing show are terrific.
Is he on the right side of history? Or has his moral compass become completely derailed? And why is everyone getting louder and louder?
Daniel Bye’s trademark blend of the hilarious and the mind-bending is at its best in this startling new show. Book now for a wild hallucinatory ride through the looking glass of twenty-first century culture.
