HOW TO USE A KNIFE

  • InterAct Theatre Company 300-332 South Hicks Street Philadelphia, PA, 19102 United States (map)

In the raw, ever-pumping, kitchen of a busy Wall Street restaurant, George -- a master chef with a dark and tortured past -- rules over his crew with the swagger of a giant.  While grappling his inner demons, George has to manage two Guatemalan cooks, a nosy busboy, and an a-hole of a boss. But he forges an unlikely personal connection with the dishwasher, Steve, a mysteriously reserved African immigrant. Fast-paced and gritty, Snider’s pressure-cooker drama explores both the personal and moral questions that arise when the ugliness of the past boils over.  

 

AUDIENCE DISCUSSION 

After this performance we invite you to a brief, optional (20-30 minute), audience discussion session in the theatre. This discussion will be facilitated by a local artist and is included as an opportunity for our InterAct audiences to talk about what they experienced during the performance and connect about the themes this play reflects.
