By Meghan BrownDirected by Kristen OsbornWith government leaders getting poisoned left and right, the Tasters have an important job eating delicious, gourmet meals and then waiting to see if they die. When one rebellious taster goes on hunger strike, the reverberation of her choice threatens to disrupt the order of their world and change the course of history. Equal parts Hunger Games, The Handmaids Tale and Food Network, Meghan Browns darkly funny, sharp new play explores the nuances of political resistance, self-interest and individual action taken to create hope in the face of hopelessness. It begs the question: when forced to choose between our ideas, personal safety and the wellbeing of humanity at large what do we do? A play for the foodie and revolutionary in all of us.
