The Hunger Artist by Franz Kafka

Etcetera Theatre Camden Show Dates: 1 Mar 2024-23 Mar 2024

What is Art? And what does it mean to be an Artist? 

Franz Kafka’s ‘Hunger Artist’ nourishes his soul the only way he knows how,by starving himself in his small, barred cage, before crowds of spectators, some admiring, some sneering and contemptuous.

Seeking acclaim for his craft and acceptance, validation and perhaps love from his audience, this is his ‘art’ and, though often torturous for him, he will stop at nothing in his pursuit of perfection.
