Overview

Well I am of course. That is the assertion of each of the performers appearing in this quirky, funny new production.

Created by Sydney performance trio post, Who’s the Best is the troupe at play, but with the very serious issue of determining who is in fact the best amongst them in any way they can.

The determinants of best-ness are varied, they include Dolly quizzes, anagram tests, underwear comparisons, hand-eye coordination assessments, voting, debates and pie charts. Each of the performers vie for the most audience attention, and the title of ‘The Best’. They'll steal lines from one another, and generally demand they be the centre of attention. With references to classic comedy, reality TV, corporate presentation and contemporary performance, the production attempts to define what makes you the best, and settle any possible impending debate.

post are back to their piss-taking ways with this production, using their mix of satirical comedy and biting truth to explore the self-obsession of the culture we live in – the need to win at all costs, and the desire, no matter the consequences to prove who is the best.
