Hungry Theater is a brand-new SF Bay Area political street theater company. With sober senses, we the hungry face the concrete conditions of life and as a result acknowledge that it is our destiny to starve the machine. We don't want our money back. We want our souls, our lives,our deaths. We want the Earth! Our stomachs churn and growl, teaching us uprising dances and insurrection songs. Our mouths tear themselves open, we bare our teeth. We waltz with the dead and grind their bones to make our bread. Our subversive eyes ask the darkness: if this is the best of all worlds, where are the others? Our mission is two-fold: 1) to destroy the illusion of separation; 2) to
recreate ourselves and our society at the same time.

To accomplish these ends, we invite you to partake in a feast fit to nourish both the living and the dead, consisting of garbage, cardboard, noise, fire,concrete and its opposite. We often meet at the Rock Paper Scissors Collective on Tuesday evenings from 6:30 to 8:00 pm. To be sure, contact us at hungrytheater [at] yahoogroups.com or call 224.406.6671.

We say, "Let them eat Hungry Theater!" We want to feed you to remind you that you are hungry. For Hunger Is Power!
