Pass the Spoon

About

Join us on the set of daytime cookery programme Pass the Spoon where hosts June Spoon and Phillip Fork – assisted by a manic-depressive egg and a highly-strung banana – must prepare a meal for Mr Granules, a monstrously demanding diner whose appetite knows no bounds. Premiered in Glasgow in 2011 and served up by composer David Fennessy, artist David Shrigley and director Nicholas Bone, Pass the Spoon is a darkly comic feast of words (spoken and sung), music and puppetry, made with decidedly adult ingredients. Shrigley’s surreal humour is matched by the wit of Fennessy’s score, which is as sharp as the knives wielded by the disturbingly ecclesiastical butcher who supplies Spoon and Fork with tasty meat. Original production by Magnetic North in collaboration with Red Note Ensemble and Tramway. Warning: this show contains strong language and adult humour.
