“We must reinvent the world in order to survive.” This is the operative maxim for a fable on the origins of mankind, a saga that begins in the present day and ends some time around 2076, with dozens of burlesque characters partying away merrily. This poetic, dazzling theater-in-the-making is definitely the perfect gateway to a new beginning, for it focuses on a human core, and not on vacant thoughts or esthetics.
