A sensorial performance about desire, hunger and excess.
Guests take their seats. There is cooking, serving, and tasting. But before long, something shifts. Craving overtakes hunger. Another bite. Another sip. When does more become too much?
Eat Me plays with excess and temptation, exploring the fine line between choice and surrender. Dominique De Groen’s text, directed by Aïda Gabriëls, is bittersweet and sticky. Composer Jonathan Bonny blends baroque and electronica, played by B’Rock - a fixture at DE SINGEL - and a strong cast of performers.
Gabriëls moves effortlessly between music, visuals, movement, and literature. In Eat Me, she draws inspiration from the cult film La Grande Bouffe, exploring what consumption means today. It is both sensory and confrontational.
In the transparent arena of :mentalKLINIK, a hybrid experience emerges between dinner, concert, and shared intoxication. Pick your poison. À ta santé.
