Driving the Doubts Away — an info comedy* by Olof Olsson

How do jokes work?

Why do people hate performance art?

What is the difference between high culture and low culture?

Driving the Doubts Away is an info comedy* about a confused teenager (Olof Olsson) who wants to be an artist, somehow gets into art school — and gets even more confused. Throwing light on the main plot are digressions on billionaires, Valhalla, Mars bars, free coffee, Austrian wine, sparkling water, and much more. At the heart of the confusion stands Marcel Duchamp’s Fountain, a urinal turned sculpture in 1917, which in 2004 was voted the most influential art work of the 20th century.

Driving the Doubts Away features 200 illustrations and five original songs.

Duration: 60 minutes + a 15-minute break + 45 minutes = 120 minutes including break.

*) An info comedy consists of 40% information, 30% comedy, 20% autobiography, and 10% melodrama.
