Review: VEGETABLES, Secret Location In Clerkenwell
by Cindy Marcolina - Jun 13, 2024

The production is shrouded in mystery, with the address given only upon booking and its exact plot begged to be kept hush-hush. The gist is that people’s consciousness can now be transferred into everyday veggies to cure all maladies mental and physical; we are the first to witness this new scientific advancement.
