Miniature circus piece for meticulous prig
A cup, a kettle, a few sugarcubes: a correctly dressed, rather fastidious, delicate, excessively orderly and scrupulous gentleman prepares with utmost accuracy and precision to the least detail – a cup of tea. He applies himself to harmless trifles with extreme gravity, very calmly, very, very, very calmly even. But little by little tension rises at this tea ceremony between laughter and shudder. Mixing object theater, miniature circus and reluctant clown,Vu takes a humorous look into the abysses of the seemingly unspectacular.
