    After 20 years in the game, Olive's Community Kitchen is under threat of gentrification in SE London. Can she handle the heat, or will she be evicted from her kitchen?

    Using spoken word and comedy MAN IS DI FEAST follows Olive, a Jamaican restaurant owner visited by different versions of herself after learning that Olive's Community Kitchen is under threat of gentrification in SE London. Can she handle the heat, or will she be evicted from her kitchen?

    Olive represents the working class migrant woman, who is too often misunderstood, misinterpreted and overshadowed. This spoken word is a protest for anyone brave enough to listen.

    "Our children live in the most deprived ward in London and their parents cannot afford to pay for the classes and activities many more privileged children enjoy after school and at the weekends. A free-to-access youth group run by a local theatre in a professional setting is an incredible opportunity."
