Secret Ingredients is a theatre project that uses cake to explore the intricacies of human relationships. In order to develop the show, artist Keely O’Brien is collecting cake requests and stories from participants. These will get woven together, along with Keely’s own personal stories, to make a performance that provides an intimate window into the quirks, nuances, joy and heartache of human connection and real relationships.
Currently in development through Theatre Replacement’s COLLIDER residency, the project will culminate in a performance and cake tasting inspired by the cakes and the stories behind them at HOLD ON LET GO in Feb. 2025. Secret Ingredients takes a playful and intentionally inefficient approach to the challenges of honest communication. Keely O’Brien is an interdisciplinary artist that often uses found materials, interviews, personal stories and biography in making new experimental and participatory works.
