Food For Thought

“Leave the gun. Take the cannoli”. The Godfather

Food for Thought

“I’ve never met anyone whose words were better than a good lunch” -Dino Campana (Italian poet) Through original music & songs of the past revisited, intertwined with moments of storytelling, FOOD FOR THOUGHT aims to be a homage to women beyond feminism and theories. An exploration of the female condition through food: if certain models of our society have turned food into an enemy or an obsession, the enjoyment of it still remains a way of overcoming the torments of life. Hosted by a prestigious intellectual and gastronome of the past, FOOD FOR THOUGHT promises to be a fantastic evening of intimate music and storytelling, an experience of genuine exchange between performers and audiences. The Vault Festival - 11th & 12th February 2014

Dear Leiran,
thank you so much for your kind words. They make me and all the people involved in the show extremely happy and proud. Our objective was exactly that, to make you laugh, think about food, clap along, and much more. Thank you for being a great audience member and for supporting us. We do have other projects we're currently working on, more details will be available after the summer. Thanks again and stay in touch! Cecilia & The Foodies :)

Hello Cecilia, great looking flyer. I actually went to see this show earlier this year and I must say that it was a really good performance. The sheer creativity that went into the writing, music, media used in the performance and star quality performers made it a really wonderful experience. Food For Though had me laughing, thinking about how we view, effect and even condition others into thinking about the food we eat - And I was even clapping along to the songs by the end of the spectacular show. If this show is ever put on again, I would recommend anyone to go see it! Keep creating great art and I cannot wait to see what you make next.

One Last Cookie

I’m a bilingual actress and singer/songwriter originally from Italy. I've performed in many venues across London, the Dublin Castle, Bar Solo, The White Lion, the Priory Tavern, The Green Man Pub, The George&Vulture, Bat Vynil and many others. My music is inspired massively by blues and jazz with a pop twist, I love playing with genres. I bring a brand new indie soul swing vibe and my songs are lighthearted pieces, I enjoy shedding an ironic light on life. Most important, I'm a food lover You can listen to my music at www.soundcloud.com/cecilia-g
