It's 2026 and King Herod is leading a self-development pyramid scheme. Join award winning clown, Riss Obolensky, for an hour of frivolity, shock and redemption. In a post-truth world punctuated by conspiracy, division and collapse, it's time to forgive… yourself.

It's 2026 and King Herod is leading a self-development pyramid scheme. You remember Herod, the biblical despot and enemy of Jesus? That's right: he's done the work, he's reached inside and by God, he's got a wellness program to show for it. Expect frivolity, shock and redemption in a process which asks the big questions: Who can we really trust? What are eggs? Why are you crying? In a post-truth world punctuated by conspiracy, division and collapse, it's time to forgive… yourself.
