Downward Spiral: The Benji’s Mind Show is an absurd solo comedy play that takes place inside the mind of a young man named Benji. In this late-night talk show set inside his own psyche, Benji’s Mind interviews guests like Shame, Marijuana, Cheesy Bread, and a Random Authority Figure while trying to figure out how to live a life that’s worth living. Haunted and saved by his humour, Benji’s Mind searches for a way. But what if the jokes run out before he does?

Blending physical comedy, urreal characters, and sharp humour, Felix Jakob Mangold takes you on a “darkly funny and deliberately unsettling” (FringeReview) ride through depression, anxiety, identity, and overall existential chaos. After runs at both the Edinburgh Fringe and Camden Fringe in London, Mangold brings his show to Berlin for one night only.
