mike daisy and the amazing tesla

 

 mike daisy. 

 "genius performer" 

 " a performing genius?" 

is this guy really performing or is he really just like this in real life. i couldnt even tell when he came to the school to talk. His monologue that he perfomed last saturday was ...

hmm.....how do i write this. a witty banter lasting about 1 hour and 40 minutes of quilted information about nokola tesla, thomas edison, his sister in walmart, collaborating with theatre artists, the tesla machine that spits out lightning bolts, the board game monopoly and how big business is the devil. all this, he spoke about while wiping his face with dark black cloth to soak up the sweat. he wore a black tshirt, a large man with exponential facial features, each one a little more amusing than the next. He sat at a desk with a glass of water and that was it. he just talked.  

 and with every performance his organic unscripted performance lived and died with him on stage. he pointed out the very deep meaning of contradiction and how humans by nature are walking contradictions. which is why most of the things he talked about sooner or later became irrelevant to what he meant in the first place. 

I loved that there was no solid answer or opinion.
