The Kitchen
Synopsis
Play by Arnold Wesker. Directed by Bijan Sheibani (National Theatre Associate Director)
In the kitchen of an enormous restaurant in London, the orders are piling up: a post-war feast of soup, fish, cutlets, omelettes and fruit flans. Thrown together by their work, chefs, waitresses and porters from across Europe -- English, Irish, German, Jewish -- argue and flirt as they race to keep up. The Kitchen features an ensemble of 30 people and is set in a kitchen, using real food and with actors actually cooking and preparing food on stage.
