The Belgian company Laika, renowned for creating projects where theatre and gastronomy go hand in hand, invites audiences to take part in a unique experience.
400 Grammes is an artistic event built around a concept as simple as it is ingenious: each participant brings 400 grams of raw ingredients (no meat or fish), which serve as their ticket to the meal. Laika gathers all the collected ingredients, cooks them, and transforms their flavours, aromas and colours into a festive three-course menu, shared around long communal tables. Joining this banquet, served in the heart of Teatro de Palha, is the poetic universe of Turak Théâtre, where everyday objects come to life among pots, ingredients and kitchen utensils.
400 Grammes is a culinary celebration, a moment of joyful hospitality, a table full of strangers who - who knows? - may become friends.
