You can have your cake and eat it too!Created by Richmond-based artist Keely Rois O’Brien, Secret Ingredients is a playful experimental theatre performance that uses cake to explore the quirks, nuances, joy, and heartache of human relationships.
Leading up to the performance, the public is invited to consider messages that they find too difficult to express directly to someone in their life, and submit them via an online form. One of these submissions will be translated into a beautiful, subversive cake that will be delivered and incorporated into the performance. Flavours are intricately paired with the message: the dark chocolate of embarrassment, the citrus zest of annoyance, the tart cherry jam of grief. With each cake delivery, a new story, a new emotion, and a new flavour emerge.
Like overhearing tantalizing gossip at a small cafe, this intimate show with limited seating of 50 guests per performance satisfies a human itch to peek into the relatable details of other people’s lives while also inviting reflection on our own unspoken feelings.
Cake is served to the audience as part of the show. Eating the cake is optional.
