Come Eat With Me

  • Theatre
  • Learning

Come Eat With Me is an interdisciplinary theatre performance exploring the layered relationship between caste and food, culminating in a shared meal.

Through Dalit stories, histories and everyday resistance, Come Eat With Me invites you on a sensory and emotional journey that unpacks themes of oppression and solidarity, grief and joy and the resilience of Oppressed Caste communities.

Intimate and participatory, Come Eat With Me is rooted in lived experience and collective memory. The performance transforms the act of inter and intra-communal eating – a practice often shaped by caste hierarchies – into a space for reflection, connection and community building.

Concluding with a shared meal, this powerful and immersive experience reveals how culinary traditions can carry both historical trauma and the quiet triumphs of survival and resistance.
