Pernod is Tony Fly, the best comedian in the West and abroad, who tells the audience about his wounded childhood behind the mask of the grotesque (“esperpento”). All art is suffering. Every work of art is the story of love or a lack of love. Tony Fly prefers an old tile to a modern person. Disenchantment. Although the gods are dead and their theological paradise is gone, man aspires to gods and paradise. And the end of the century shows itself enchanted with new gods and paradises. All artificial. Makeup and Pernod. Tears and laughter. Tony Fly chooses his personal God and his artificial paradise: Pernod. Alcohol.
