Summary/Abstract: Nicky Silver is a ‘furious’ young writer who hides himself in the back of a comic way of writing, describing a devastating world and what had been left . lively and human, i.e. a metaphor of surviving in a universe where collaps, absence of divinity and anarchy represent important rules for survival. The study describes the performance Fat Men in Skirts as the goal was to pay a special attention on what happens in our world, wondering for a while about the evolution (involution?) of human beings, about their discovered or undiscovered depths, about their amplified inner reactions when exposed to critical situations which spread like a disease on their existential level.
