Overview

The life of a "big" restaurant seen as a world unto itself, a world apart with its own inhabitants, rules, intrigues, movements, hierarchy, history and stories, internal and external relationships... an organic world that pulses, moves, shouts, cries, sings and, of course, eats. Here, the particularity of their vision lies in the stage set-up, which offers two separate, parallel spaces that interact with each other: the "visible" world on the dining room side, and the "underground" world on the kitchen side. At intermission, the spectator switches sides, seeing the same story from two radically different points of view.
