The Kitchen October 6, 2011

1950s London. In the kitchen of an enormous West End restaurant, the orders are piling up. Thrown together by their work, chefs, waitresses and porters from across Europe argue and flirt as they race to keep up. Peter, a high-spirited young cook, seems to thrive on the pressure. In between preparing dishes, he manages to strike up an affair with married waitress Monique, the whole time dreaming of a better life. But in the all-consuming clamour of the kitchen, nothing is far from the brink of collapse. THE KITCHEN features an ensemble of 30 people and is set in a kitchen, using real food and with actors actually cooking and preparing food on stage.
