‘Utterly sensational’ ★★★★★ Quintessential Review

 

What would you take if you were forced to leave home with no hope of returning? How would you make a fresh start somewhere completely new? This is the true story about one woman who loses everything.

 

Remembering the tastes and aromas of her mother’s kitchen with live cooking on stage, she recreates the dishes of her childhood and homeland, building a new life and community around food.

 

Written by award-winning Hannah Khalil from the story by Atoosa Sepehr, this life-affirming play chronicles a quest to start again.

 

My English Persian Kitchen was first performed at the Traverse Theatre as part of Edinburgh Festival Fringe produced by Soho Theatre and Traverse Theatre.

 

‘A thoroughly flavourful feast of a play that transports its audiences, through its aromatic delights, into an Iranian kitchen’ ★★★★ Guardian

We ask you to support The Corn Hall with a donation, so that we can continue to be a creative community hub for Diss. Whatever the donation, anything from £1 to £10,000, is support that The Corn Hall didn't have until you very kindly gave it to us. We offer you a very warm thank you.
