Konfetti!

"The mad are multiplying, therapists are running short, and soon we'll run out of confetti too... Donate confetti, novelty items, and anything that can be turned into good cheer. A laughing bag costs just five euros and brings so much joy. Help now and you help twice over. Donate confetti!
Always show the inessential, the superficial, the unimportant. The other thing - the important thing - happens out of sight. You draw attention to the right moment at the wrong place. And that's really all there is to it."

Ingrid Lausund and her five archetypal characters reach into the bag of tricks, toss confetti like smoke bombs, and expose the whole cheap magic by which not only populist leaders of the darkest stripe brazenly turn the trivial into the significant, distract from real problems, and sow confusion.

Is "Konfetti! - A Magic Evening for the Politically Bewildered" a bracingly funny lesson for our times, as the global age of camouflage, deception, and counter-enlightenment rapidly dawns?
