This year, you are invited to take your seat at the table for The Reservation – a bold, immersive dance theatre production that holds a mirror to social habits and hungers. This family-friendly performance is sure to awaken your appetite. Set in the fast-paced world of a bustling urban restaurant, plates and politics collide as we serve up an à la carte of movement and meaning. It’s a space where strangers meet, lovers quarrel, and families reunite, while waiters waltz between realities – a place where the customer is always right… en die chef is altyd bedonnerd. It’s a paradise for influencers, where selfies flash and dishes glisten.
