Soy un kiwi

Stand-up comedy monologue by Jaime Gago looking at adult life, expectations and the difficulty of staying natural in a world of ultra-processed products. A show of about 60 minutes at Pub Parada 42 in Madrid.

Soy un kiwi is Jaime Gago's new live comedy special, a monologue in which the comedian revisits his own life, his contradictions and the difficulties of staying authentic in an environment saturated with industrial products. The material focuses on the thirty-something stage, that point at which it is hard to tell whether one is starting over or going through a crisis.

The staging is simple: the performer, a microphone and a spotlight on the stage, with a running time of about 60 minutes. The humour is direct and bittersweet, and the text addresses expectations about adulthood with sharp insight. It is aimed both at those who recognise themselves in these situations and at those who attend without that prior experience, and the register is accessible to younger audiences as well as to older spectators.
