Director

We know what you're thinking, and you're right: it's true! The one, unique (more unique than rare!), and inimitable Herbert Ballerina finally has his own stage show!  
The title—Come una catapulta—is already hilarious. But that's not all. Because Herbert talks to us about a thousand (and one) things, freely, in his unassuming but terribly ironic style. The truth is that none of us/you are ready for this show: between boxes of all sizes strewn across the stage and an inevitable bust of Fred Bongusto, Herbert opens our minds to topics like Molise (which really exists!), couple tattoos, moving, the spotlight (or were they reflections?), satanic architects, hallucinating doctors and psychologists, furry friends (animals, of course!), failed documentary makers, and Robocop in therapy. And again, lashings of histrionics about famous people like Michael Jordan, Elon Musk, Will Smith, Pablo Picasso.    
In short, a mosaic of ordinary, everyday absurdities, as funny as they are realistic! Told as only Herbert can: with laughs from start to finish. Basically, if you want to be catapulted into the orbit of wholesome entertainment or hilarious nonsense, Herbert is the right man for you, and this is definitely the show for you!
