The Kitchen Network Performance | Luiza Prado

  • Primary 33 Seely Road Nottingham, NG7 1NU United Kingdom (map)

When: Saturday 27 April, 4–6pm
Where: Primary, Gallery One and Garden
Booking: Limited places. Book here.

Join us as the studio audience for a live performance of the last reality TV food show on the planet!

The Kitchen Network delves into the politics of food as entertainment, exploring how it's become detached from the realities of its production and its role in climate collapse. Unfolding as the final reality TV food competition on Earth, this performance piece uses humour to examine the divide between online food cultures and their disconnection to wider issues of class, gender, and geography.

Artist Luiza Prado brings The Kitchen Network to Nottingham in April, working with local cooks to develop the latest episode. The performance will see three cooks facing live challenges, using their skills and creativity to create a recipe from mystery ingredients.

The project asks: How does turning the kitchen into a site for performance distract us from concrete fears of extinction in the context of climate disaster?

Please note this performance has limited capacity and will be filmed.

Access: This event will take place in Gallery One which has level access from our main entrance. Please email admin@weareprimary.org or call 0115 924 4493 regarding access enquiries.
