Sunny Leunig
Amongst the chaos and rush of our big city, in the loft of Melbourne’s Lithuanian Club, Sunny Leunig sits, waiting to bring us a thoughtful and irreverent performance and most importantly, a lesson in Magosophy – magic and philosophy combined – in A Guide To Unhappiness. Sunny Leunig is a Magosopher (ma-jos-opher) – a cross between a hapless, awkward magician and an amateur philosopher. In A Guide To Unhappiness, a depressing malaise inspires him to embark on a European journey and discover his favourite philosophers who take him on a whimsical guide to ‘unhappiness’. Magosophy is about disentangling the riddles of our human existence. Versatile and unique, the show incorporates stunning magic and philosophical musings that encompass pathos and explore the joys and sorrows of the human condition. Helping Sunny dive in and explore his minor key emotions are the haunting musical talents of Sara Retallick, chameleon like performance of Jono Burns (Bell Shakespeare, Arena Theatre Company) under the direction of Anne Browning (The Pitch, The Colours, The Water Carriers).
