BOSTON PREMIERE

Gob Squad's Kitchen

(You've Never Had It So Good)

“An outstanding live video performance in the spirit and style of Andy Warhol.”—Christiane Kühl, Zitty, Berlin

“A brilliant show, full of wit, life and humanity.”—Der Standard, Vienna

A live film with bad coffee, nervous breakdowns, wild parties, and modern hairstyles. Inspired by Andy Warhol's films including Kitchen; Eat, Sleep, and Screen Test; Gob Squad—a collective of UK and German artists who combine performance, theater, film, weird happenings, and real life—grab Warhol’s hand and travel back to the underground cinema scene of New York City in the 1960s. Although nothing much happens in the original films, they encapsulate the hedonistic, experimental energy of the time. Too stoned to learn their lines, the actors—including Edie Sedgwick—hang around and improvise about nothing in particular. Gob Squad reconstructs the experimental films in a quest for the original, the authentic, the here and now, the real me, the real you, and the hidden depths beneath the shiny surfaces of modern life.
