Dinner With America

Created during the era when George W. Bush was President of the United States, Dinner with America provides a gentle but provocative insight into a defining moment in the country’s history. As the performance space transforms and shifts through extraordinary images, it uncovers themes of consumerism, rights, ownership, voices, hopes, harvest and division, and leads to a finale that embraces its audience in a delightful shared feast.
Created and performed in collaboration with costume designer Lucille Acevedo-Jones and film and video artist Lucy Cash, with original lighting design by Cis O’Boyle and technical operation by Steve Wald. Funded by Arts Council England.
