LEFTOVERS is a development of Mem’s earlier piece FUEL, created for Home, London, 2004. For FUEL, Mem invited his family to help him create a performance in a domestic kitchen involving traditional Turkish Cypriot cooking and hospitality. FUEL was an intimate encounter with Mem and his family, LEFTOVERS moves his culinary and cultural concerns out onto the High Street to un-cover an English café culture that has been assimilated and imperceptibly changed by generations of Turkish Cypriot families.
Tickets cost £10 which includes a full English breakfast (vegetarian option available) and can be purchased by calling the Artsadmin box office 020 7650 2350 or online http://www.artsadmin.co.uk/summerseason
The Leftovers café project is commissioned by Kahve Society in association with Artsadmin with support from Awards For All.
