This hilarious and unique one-man show features a "kitchen god" in his domain: the kitchen. Food, a symbol of that most vital to us: life, satiation, hunger, longing, loss. The piece begs an immersive, live-cooking experience! A highlight from the text: "(Note: Audience members are invited to try the dish cooked after the show. Don't waste food)"
