SUMMARY:The Studios: Haribo Kimchi
DESCRIPTION:★★★★\n“Haribo Kimchi is both a refined as well as a raw performance about life in a country that isn’t yours.”\n– De Standaard \n“A performance that inimitably blends Korean cooking with personal stories and reflections on comfort food\, identity and migration.”\n– pzazz \nThe surprising flavour of seaweed soup\, the sharp sound of a knife slicing cucumber\, the hiss and sizzle of mushrooms on a scorching fire. \nIn Haribo Kimchi\, we find ourselves in a pojangmacha\, one of the typical late-night snack bars found on the streets of South Korea. There\, we meet three characters—a snail\, a gummy bear\, and an eel—who take us on a culinary journey\, exploring food as shelter for those dislocated from their culture. In a series of intimate\, absurdist anecdotes\, they recount the evolution of kimchi culture\, the bitter pain of unadulterated racism\, the shame of trying to blend in\, and the deep umami taste of home. \nThis work comes from South Korean theatremaker and composer Jaha Koo\, whose practice oscillates between multimedia and performance\, encompassing his own music\, video\, text\, and robotic objects. He rose to international prominence with his Hamartia Trilogy (2015 – 2021)\, a series of critically-acclaimed works which delved into the far-reaching imperialism in East Asia. The first two works of this trilogy\, Lolling & Rolling and Cuckoo\, were presented to packed houses at Singapore International Festival of Arts 2023\, receiving rave reviews from audiences and critics alike. \nEmploying a hybrid style that combines music\, cutting-edge video\, and robotic performers\, the artist reflects on cultural assimilation with all its conflicts and paradoxes. In an exceptional performance that plays with all the senses\, he serves up personal stories marinated in sweet-and-sour melancholy. \nMore food for thought—how do you express your artistic values through theatre? Check out Jaha Koo’s masterclass on Valid Languages for the Intersection\, perfect for performance-makers\, arts students and practitioners. \nConcept\, Text\, Direction\, Music\, Sound & Video Jaha Koo\nPerformance Gona\, Haribo\, Eel\, Jaha Koo & Two Guests\nDramaturgy Dries Douibi\nScenography\, Research Collaboration & Media Operation Eunkyung Jeong\nArtistic Advice Pol Heyvaert\nTechnical Coordination Korneel Coessens\nTechnique Bart Huybrechts\, Babette Poncelet & Jasse Vergauwe\nProduction Coordination Wim Clapdorp\nEnglish Proofreading Jason Wrubell\nSnail Animation Vincent Lynen\nProduction CAMPO\nCo-production Kunstenfestivaldesarts (Brussels)\, Rideau De Bruxelles\, Theater Utrecht\, SPRING Festival (Utrecht)\, Festival d’Automne À Paris\, Théâtre De La Bastille (Paris)\, Tangente St. Pölten – Festival Für Gegenwartskultur\, &Espoo Theatre (Espoo)\, International Summer Festival Kampnagel (Hamburg)\, Sophiensaele (Berlin)\, Meet You Festival (Valladolid)\, Bunker (Ljubljana)\, National Theatre And Concert Hall Taipei\, The Divine Comedy International Theater Festival / Teatr Łaźnia Nowa (Kraków) & Perpodium \nWith the Support of The Taxshelter Of The Belgian Federal Government Via Cronos Invest & The Flemish Government \nThe prototype of the eel was developed as part of Innovation:Lab’s funnel in co-production with Theater Utrecht and creative technologists Adriaan Wormgoor & Willem Vooijs.

SUMMARY:The Studios: FOOD
DESCRIPTION:“But it is safe to say\, at this dinner party\, even though you won’t be eating much\, Sobelle will give you plenty to chew on.” – Playbill \n“For all its playfulness\, this brilliant show has the power to make you look with fresh eyes at a daily act that you probably take for granted — a surefire sign of its worth as a work of genuinely thought-provoking art.” – Theatermania \nDo we need what we eat? Do we eat what we need? What does it really cost? Chew on these questions in this theatrical gastronomy experience unlike any other. \nAt the centre of the performance space lies a comically large banquet table\, encircled by audience members. The host of the evening\, Geoff Sobelle\, conducts this multi-sensory experience with deft hands\, animated expressions and impressive physicality. Activating the senses through a myriad of sounds\, scents\, sights and textures\, this acclaimed theatremaker stitches together a conversation about personal memories\, consumption and the evolution of food production over generations. You are invited to be a guest at the dinner party—whether around the table or from the surrounding seats. \nConcocted and performed by American actor\, producer and innovator Geoff Sobelle\, FOOD features his signature flavour of theatricality\, combining rigorous design\, onstage magic and subtle humour to create a participatory experience. Connecting the universal to the personal and distilling the absurd from the seemingly mundane\, FOOD invites the audience to explore their place within this exploration of food and consumption. \nFOOD is the third part of a performance trilogy that explores the abnormal corners of ordinary topics. Each installment—The Object Lesson (2013)\, HOME (2017)\, and FOOD (2022)—encourages the audience to ponder their personal connections with objects\, spaces\, and food. Following its acclaimed selection as an invited work for the prestigious Edinburgh International Festival\, FOOD sold out performances in 2023 and went on to tour in countries like Australia\, Korea and now\, Singapore. \nIt will be a dinner party to remember: gather round and feast on questions and contemplations surrounding society’s relationship with food and sustenance.

SUMMARY:The Studios: FOOD
DESCRIPTION:“But it is safe to say\, at this dinner party\, even though you won’t be eating much\, Sobelle will give you plenty to chew on.” – Playbill \n“For all its playfulness\, this brilliant show has the power to make you look with fresh eyes at a daily act that you probably take for granted — a surefire sign of its worth as a work of genuinely thought-provoking art.” – Theatermania \nDo we need what we eat? Do we eat what we need? What does it really cost? Chew on these questions in this theatrical gastronomy experience unlike any other. \nAt the centre of the performance space lies a comically large banquet table\, encircled by audience members. The host of the evening\, Geoff Sobelle\, conducts this multi-sensory experience with deft hands\, animated expressions and impressive physicality. Activating the senses through a myriad of sounds\, scents\, sights and textures\, this acclaimed theatremaker stitches together a conversation about personal memories\, consumption and the evolution of food production over generations. You are invited to be a guest at the dinner party—whether around the table or from the surrounding seats. \nConcocted and performed by American actor\, producer and innovator Geoff Sobelle\, FOOD features his signature flavour of theatricality\, combining rigorous design\, onstage magic and subtle humour to create a participatory experience. Connecting the universal to the personal and distilling the absurd from the seemingly mundane\, FOOD invites the audience to explore their place within this exploration of food and consumption. \nFOOD is the third part of a performance trilogy that explores the abnormal corners of ordinary topics. Each installment—The Object Lesson (2013)\, HOME (2017)\, and FOOD (2022)—encourages the audience to ponder their personal connections with objects\, spaces\, and food. Following its acclaimed selection as an invited work for the prestigious Edinburgh International Festival\, FOOD sold out performances in 2023 and went on to tour in countries like Australia\, Korea and now\, Singapore. \nIt will be a dinner party to remember: gather round and feast on questions and contemplations surrounding society’s relationship with food and sustenance.

SUMMARY:The Studios: Escape to Batam
DESCRIPTION:Two of Singapore theatre’s most formidable multi-hyphenates craft a lyrical spectacle of the past and present\, speaking to all who have known the harsh bitterness and gentle longing of awaiting a new normal. \nWhat do stories of war tell us about human resilience and how we care for those closest to us? How does telling these stories help us to comfort and to heal? \nCreated by Claire Wong and Huzir Sulaiman\, Escape to Batam is a delicate tapestry of the past and the present\, weaving the remarkable lived experiences of Ming\, who spent his boyhood on the rural island of Batam to escape the Japanese Occupation of Singapore\, with his daughter’s personal stories of family\, loss and grief felt in the years since her father’s passing. Drawing parallels from their different life journeys\, daughter Claire finds herself discovering what it means to live with the pain of loving those who have left us\, and how to carry on for those who are still with us. \nDirector-Playwright Claire leads a phenomenal ensemble cast of Adib Kosnan\, Chaney Chia\, Genevieve Tan\, Rebekah Sangeetha Dorai\, and Neo Swee Lin. Poignant and humorous by turns\, Escape to Batam draws deeply on Claire and Huzir’s mastery of the written word and the theatrical medium to create a powerful new play that transcends generations.
