Protein has created its most playful show to date with a new immersive work that features four vocalists and four dancers, singing for their supper in a dining setting that may contain food...

This witty piece of dance and music theatre is inspired by social occasions and life at mealtimes. The performers invite you to sit at a table, offer a tasting menu and then serve you a show that explores our relationship with food. All sound is performed a cappella as movement is composed and music is choreographed, creating an intimate experience of indulgence, nostalgia and mischief.
