Dinner with a weirdo

29 June 2026, Mon. 18:00 - 20:00
Lesya Ukrainka National Academic Drama Theater Kyiv, 5 Bohdana Khmelnytskyi St.

On the stage of the Lesya Ukrainka National Academic Drama Theater is a witty, brilliantly constructed French situation comedy "Dinner with a Freak." This is a fascinating story about a successful book publisher, Pierre, who, together with his aristocratic friends, organizes a weekly "evening of freaks."

"Dinner with a Freak": When the game of superiority doesn't go according to plan

The rules of this unusual competition are simple: each participant must bring an extraordinary person with them to make fun of them. The one who presents the strangest "exhibit" will receive a prize. This evening, Pierre is counting on triumph, having invited the modest and simple-minded François. At Numotamo, we recommend this performance to those who love subtle intellectual humor and want to see how self-confidence is shattered by sincere spontaneity.

Pierre does not even suspect that he will fall into a web of unpredictable events. Francis Weber, one of the brightest French comedians, created an apt satire on human arrogance. This is an ideal option for "anti-everyday life" - a performance that makes you laugh to tears and at the same time think about how easily roles can change in life. Plan your evening at the Lesya Ukrainka Theater and book tickets at Numotamo.com to find out: who will really turn out to be the eccentric.

Why you should visit this exhibition:

  • A classic of French comedy: a brilliant plot from the master of the genre, Francis Weber.
  • Apt satire: an ironic look at aristocratic superiority and human weaknesses.
  • Domino effect: a chain of funny disasters that keeps you in suspense until the very end.
  • Brilliant acting: deep character development in a production by a leading national theater.
