If placed next to UBU ROI this play is a classic in the genre of surrealistic theatre. The main character is Victor, who is nine years old and 181cm tall. It is his birthday, at which he takes the opportunity to de-mask his parents and other grown-ups from the face of lies that they all seemingly carry and by doing so, he also reveals all the pathetic conventions in society that when it comes to it seem so childish and ridiculous. The play certainly stands out as being a poetic saga narrated by a great visionary theatre poet.
