Silent Lunch is an interactive sound and food performance, where the audience are invited to a three course dinner, eating in silence with hearing protection on, hereby changing the focus of each participant’s senses indward. We have arranged Silence Lunch both in Denmark and internationally at festivals, workshops and social gatherings with huge sucesses. For some people it has been an wonderful and awakening experience, others have had to leave the performance because it was to extreme for them, yet they saw it as a very unique and possitive experience that they would carry with them.
The concept is a collaboration between project coordinator Steen Andersen and visual artist & vocalist My Lambertsen.
