Four performers mount their treadmills, and the challenge begins. Burnout Paradise tests the limits of mind, body, and spirit in an increasingly frenetic juggling act of absurdity. A delusional love letter to the reckless labor and euphoric optimism before burnout, demonstrating that the system isn’t designed for us: it’s designed to break us. Australia’s Pony Cam evokes the recklessness, euphoria, and optimism that comes before burnout. What begins as a simple wager between performer and audience becomes a desperate and hilarious attempt to complete a series of escalating tasks that challenge the performers’ bodies, spirits, and minds. This is not an endurance feat. Nor is it performance art. It is a spirited realization that overachievement is no mere spectator sport. It relies on the kindness of strangers. “One of the most frenetically uproarious shows of gloriously demented ecstasy.” – Time Out “Magnificently chaotic, breathlessly frenetic fun” – THE SCOTSMAN “A truly exceptional theatrical experience” – BRITISH THEATRE GUIDE Visit: "Burnout Paradise" La Jolla Playhouse on Instagram and Facebook
