Cooking and chaos are like fire and water. Cooking requires not only talent, but also organization. In Cucinema cooks and actors flout the accepted discipline and order of the professional kitchen. Sophisticated cooking techniques are swept aside in favour of a bizarre but highly amusing approach to food preparation.

Laika and Circo Ripopolo allow the audience a glimpse inside their wonderfully chaotic kitchen. The camera zooms in on everything, revealing all. Dishes emerge from the screen. Bottles balance on a knife-edge.

The most extraordinary dishes are served at the table with great style in an unadulterated cabaret atmosphere with live piano music. All the audience has to do is sit back and relish the sheer pleasure of the show unabashed.
