Bold red and yellow hand-painted style typography for 'Everything is so Sweet (Until You Call)' next to a giant, glowing red telephone handset surrounded by neon emoji faces and electric blue lightning streaks over a dark crowd silhouette.
A long-haired, bearded Wallace (Daniel Rodriguez) (the artist) holding a black telephone handset to his ear on a dark stage. He is flanked by a giant glowing red telephone graphic, vintage analog synthesizers, and floating neon emoji faces under red and blue light beams.
A wide, cinematic landscape view of a live performance stage under intense red spotlighting and electric blue lightning graphics on the outer edges. In the foreground, a setup of electronic instruments including a Korg Minilogue XD synthesizer, an Arturia MicroFreak, and a modular synth with chaotic red patch cables sits on a dark table facing a large backdrop screen. The massive screen displays a vibrant, detailed underwater coral reef scene with sunlight filtering down through deep blue water.

EVERYTHING IS SO SWEET (Until You Call)

Daniel has prepared a proper FRINGE show. Everything is going very well. Then the phone rings.

EVERYTHING IS SO SWEET (Until You Call) is a 45-minute solo post-comedy performance blending autobiographical storytelling, theatrical performance, ambient textures and soundscapes.

What begins as a carefully controlled, funny performance starts to shift after one unexpected call. Jokes return differently. Silence gets harder to fill. The show keeps moving even when the person inside it no longer quite knows how.

Funny, intimate and slightly strange, it explores the gap between appearing fine and actually being fine, and asks whether getting better means becoming cured, or simply becoming more whole.
