Humour is a human privilege. There are examples of fun, games and amusement in the animal kingdom, but the generation of deliberately funny things is a peculiarity of homo sapiens. A giraffe doesn't bother to trick a lion or make his mates laugh, but even a meerkat can't laugh at his neighbour falling down. We can. Humour is a gift to humans, it amuses us and often releases tension. Its source is mostly our own stupidity and weakness, whether we look at the individual or at humanity.

Akit a mozdony megcsapott - Badár Sándor önálló estje
Bödőcs Londonban 1. rész
One man stands up in front of many people and speaks his joys and sorrows. What is this if not therapy? Yes. It is. András Péter Kovács breaks down inhibitions, sheds tears, brings relief and liberation. He does all this under the spell of family experiences and problems. The stakes are not small. One man's life through one man's life. From birth to the final goodbye. The oft-heard phrases we hate as children, use as parents, criticise as grandparents. "As long as you eat my bread...", "But at my age...", "I don't want to interfere, but...", "That won't get you anywhere with me...". Human games in the family as a child and as an adult, as seen through the eyes of a comedian who is a child, husband, father and relative. Pereputty, or emotional rollercoaster in the family circle.

My latest solo show, "Plan Gone Up in Smoke", shows one little man's struggle with the cosmic forces of the universe that suck him in day after day.
