Chiringuito Paradise

Two barmen are preparing the festive opening of Chiringuito Paradise. Everything is ready for a successful opening ceremony.
With the guests already there, a full program, and the Champagne on ice, the party can begin.

A heart-warming duo trying to save the day in an apocalyptic mix including catastrophic juggling, physical comedy and–of course–fireworks!!!

The slapstick of the Belgian company Sitting Duck recalls with delight the scenes of the silent cinema"
