In 2021, Sydney comedian Sam Kissajukian decided to quit standup, rent an abandoned cake factory, and become a painter. Over the course of a six-month manic episode, he created 300 large-scale paintings, unknowingly documenting his mental state through the process. In this hilarious, fascinating, and wildly original show, Kissajukian brings audiences on a rollercoaster ride that explores the ties between art, mental health, and creativity.
Following its celebrated run at the Vineyard Theatre this fall, the show returns in association with Sally Horchow and Matt Ross with a curated exhibition of Sam’s acclaimed artwork in Vineyard Theatre’s lobby spaces, which audiences are invited to tour before and after the show.
