2022 . performed text . costume . digital diagram



Dinner Machine is an ongoing piece of hysterical fantasy storytelling that explores networks and ecologies of humans and non-humans within an impossibly large and complex castle.

In this scene, the King and his fool construct elaborate traps to catch rats, for food and pleasure.
