The poets read separate pieces, dressed in kitchen aprons and headscarves, on either side of a table with each their own cooking pot. Random members of the audience are handed egg timers and a piece of paper with an ingredient written on it, which they read out loud to the performers when their timer rings.

"Status-Busy" is a documentary theatre piece that explores Miquel's anecdotes of creating their first email, intertwining reflections on routine excesses and life's pivotal moments. Through humor and introspection, it prompts the audience to consider their own roles in the grand scheme of existence amidst the constant buzz of modern life.
Instant tattoo art
Katya unveiled her latest collection of temporary tattoos. Each piece was a captivating exploration of the concept of skin, reminiscent of newly shed snake skin. The atmosphere crackled with intrigue as attendees were introduced to these innovative tattoos that reimagined the very idea of self-adornment.
Reading Marx at the Met Gala
A performance that provocatively juxtaposes the sensual with the intellectual: A lost romantic reads the mundane grocery list left behind by one of his past lovers in an overly erotic tone, while a performer enacts his explicit* mental process behind him, unveiling their nakedness beneath a velvet sheet. This pornographic poem challenges the artistic properties of pornography, delving into its explicit, formulaic, and fantastical nature that it embodies.
