Thu 8 May at 7.30pm & Fri 9 May at 8pm BASED ON THE ORIGINAL NOVEL BY LAURA ESQUIVEL. ADAPTED FOR THE STAGE BY LINDA MCLEAN. A sumptuous love story cooked up in a Mexican kitchen. This gorgeous, sexy tale is set in revolutionary Mexico in 1910. It is a sizzling, succulent dish, marinated in forbidden passion, garnished with humour, and served with lashings of the bittersweet pain of stifled love. This is the story of Tita, a young woman forbidden to marry because of family tradition and forced instead to watch her sister wed the man she loves. Cooking to quench her aching heart, Tita’s food intoxicates all who taste it, affecting them deeply and transporting them into a captivating world of magic realism. In this, the UK’s first stage adaptation of Laura Esquivel’s international bestseller, TSF bring their flair for visual storytelling to this sensual celebration of Latin American culture and language. Using vibrant text, masks and a haunting, cinematic score including vibrant live music, the international cast bring you a poetic and visual feast served with all the sights, sounds and smells of Latin America. “…burns with a passion that threatens to set fire to the stage” Promotional Video
