“Food is a gift. Something you give to others. A privilege. An excuse to be with the ones you love.” In Pepa’s childhood home in Peru, the rich flavours of traditional cooking were forbidden, except when her grandmother slipped in a steak and a handful of spices. Moving to England sent Pepa on a journey inward, where she discovered that food could be shared with a new family around a new table. Written and performed by Peruvian artist Pepa Duarte and directed by Sergio Maggiolo, Eating Myself turns the stage into a Peruvian kitchen. A traditional soup is cooked live throughout the performance, and its aroma fills the auditorium.
Combining storytelling, physical theatre, music and real cooking, this solo show explores womanhood, body image, diet culture and cultural identity. It places the experiences of grandmother, mother and daughter side by side, with no villains and no romanticising. It offers no easy answers about making peace with food. Instead, it honestly shows the push and pull between control and desire. The performance ends with the audience sharing the freshly made soup, a full sensory experience hailed by The Guardian for its “overt and audacious theatricality.”
