What is art? What does it mean to be an artist? How far would you go for what you love the most? Kafka’s Hunger Artist nourishes his soul the only way he knows how, by starving himself. In his small cage, before crowds of spectators, he seeks acclaim for his craft and acceptance by his audience. This is his ‘art’. He will stop at nothing in his pursuit of perfection. In this, Kafka’s final short story, we celebrate his life and work with this dramatic solo retelling. Performed by Jon Sidgwick (Berkoff's Oedipus, Edinburgh Fringe 2011).
