“When I found out my younger brother had just committed suicide, I had the same first thought we all do: how do I write a joke about this? Recounting my story in both hilarious and heart-wrenching detail, ADITYA MAYYA PRETENDS TO BE SAD is an hour-long exploration of being earnest from someone allergic to sincerity. A tragicomic solo show for people who’ve seen a thousand tragicomic solo shows, this is an hour that both celebrates and satirizes the @edfringe staple that we all know and love.
