WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
It's 1965 and everything is just about to happen. The German/British collective Gob Squad invites you to take the hand of the King of Pop himself, Andy Warhol, and take a trip back to the underground cinemas of New York City, back to where it all began. Gob Squad's Kitchen reconstructs Warhol's films in the quest to illuminate the past for a new generation, reflecting on the nature of authenticity, the here and now, and the hidden depths beneath the shiny surfaces of modern life. Gob Squad's Kitchen was a hit at The Public's 2011 Under the Radar Festival.

But in what is easily the first can't miss show of the season, the performance actually begins before you even take your seats, as the Public Theater ushers invite audience members to tour the backstage upon entering the theater.
