Rafael performs in:

THE DINNER CLUB
A Contemporary Performance

November 4th and 5th at 8pm

“I make love to myself when I eat.”

The Dinner Club is a dance-theatre performance that follows 4 members of a meet-up group who connect through their love for food. Personal food stories compiled from interviews with Queens residents and members of the cast transport us through alternate food-induced universes with TV commercial jingles and Reality TV- style confessions exploring food-based themes of nourishment vs. destruction and tradition vs. progression.

Out! Out! Into the buddhafields,

among the stars to wander forever,

weightless without a headline,

without thought,

without newspapers to read by the light of the galaxies.”
