ALFRED KOURIS AND HARRY STACEY BAKE A CAKE

Created & Performed by Alfred Kouris & Harry Stacey

A WORLD PREMIERE

You’ve seen many plays, but this one bakes the cake.

Alfred Kouris and Harry Stacey are a mess – in life, in the kitchen, and on the Old Fitz stage.

In principle, baking a cake is a relatively simple task. In practice, it is an escalating disaster of ego, friendship, and the ever-present horror of realising you might not actually know what you’re doing.

Unprofessional Chefs Alfred Kouris and Harry Stacey were told it was impossible. They’d never seen it done, only heard whispers of the possibilities. "It needs to cool before you can ice it.” "You can't put an oven inside a theatre.”

They have heard it all before. Join them as they take a stand against those who don’t believe in an hour of friendship, introspection, and the desperate need to find purpose in the mess of it all. Let them eat cake… Hopefully.
