Lacuna Kitchen
KIEMKRACHT

Pop-up restaurant and performance about invisible labour and the hidden stories in our food culture

Lacuna Kitchen by the Indian-Dutch theater maker and storyteller Abhishek Thapar is a sensory theater experience in the form of a unique pop-up restaurant, where the stories behind our food culture are explored. Personal ingredients and untold stories of kitchen workers (including migrant workers, refugees, and individuals with diverse skills) form the basis for a four-course dinner. Lacuna Kitchen demonstrates how food can serve as a bridge between cultures, while also exposing invisible labor and the impact of colonialism on our food culture.  


The performance transforms the kitchen into a space for community building and critical reflection, inviting participants and the audience to think about their own role within societal and economic systems.
