In his second hour of stand-up, André de Freitas’s at that weird time in life where you’re meant to become an adult. Your parents become people, relationships get complicated, and nothing feels black and white anymore.

A coming-of-age show about family, love, ambition, and breakups, it explores the quiet dilemmas of adulthood: old friendships, complicated breakups, and the uncomfortable gap between being an adult and feeling like one.
