The Food Show - Touring Theatre show going to Community Spaces
The Food Show
Three generations from a family of foodies cook up a storm in this deliciously silly, thought provoking and spicy treat of a show.
Gary is a cook, and loves to share stories from his colourful family (who just won’t stop interrupting!) as he whips up a feast for the senses in The Food Show. Weaving family history, traditional tales, cooking tips, and belly rumbling tunes, Gary inspires us to taste, experiment and share our way through life. Is it a cooking demonstration? Is it a science experiment? Or is it a DJ set? Who knows, but with Gary, Nothing is off the menu!
Charming and surreal characters, food puppetry and live electronica played on vegetables will fill your tummies and leave you with a satisfied smile on your face.
