FEAST.
March 8 – April 6, 2025
The Counts Den
1039 S. Olive Street
Los Angeles CA 90015
The West Coast premiere of FEAST. is a vivid reimagining of the epic poem Beowulf, but as a cautionary tale. True to the ancient myth, Grendel, a monstrous creature described as ‘mankind’s enemy’ is killed by Beowulf, but it is here that FEAST. diverges. In this immersive and visceral theatre experience, Grendel’s mother throws a dinner party to seek justice for her son’s murder, only to confront her own guilt and rage. Oscillating between witty banter and pointed exploration, this heightened high fantasy crashes into the contemporary political landscape, asking the audience to collectively contemplate climate change, income inequality, and the rising forces of authoritarianism. Experience this humorous, thought-provoking one-woman live theatrical event uniquely curated with an actual ‘feast,’ of charcuterie/small bites and themed drinks.
