Geoff Sobelle's innovative performance piece 'Food,' first showcased in 2022, delves into the cultural and social narratives surrounding food. Sobelle emphasizes the importance of experiencing the show without prior knowledge, allowing the audience to engage fully with the unfolding narrative. The performance, part of a trilogy, examines food from various angles—how it is sourced, prepared, and consumed—while also posing deeper questions about the value and price of our eating habits. The show aims to evoke a conversation among viewers, extending its impact beyond the stage.
"The show changes all the time," he says. "I can't be explicit. People don't need preparation to see Food. The show does all the education."
"In a way, anything told ahead of time messes up the plot. The way these things are made is not to have clue sheets or help unlocking them."
"These shows are a full show, but then there's a conversation you're left with to have in the bar afterwards."
Food is the third piece in a trilogy that includes The Object Lesson and Home. Each show examines a kernel or core idea.
