Fast Food

$23.99

An original, poignant comedy that flips an ordinary day in a chain restaurant, and propels us into the fantasies of its protagonists.
Fast Food looks at the gig economy through the lives of five people just trying to dream of something better. Some are there by choice, others just haven’t figured out what else they should be doing. Life starts to take on a new meaning when hands are busy … and hearts and minds begin to wander.
Developed through the Red Stitch INK new writing program, this is the second INK commission from playwright Morgan Rose, following her acclaimed work, desert, 6:29pm. Real, intelligent and incredibly funny, Fast Food is a moving, exhilarating piece about the realities of the fast-paced, soul-crushing world of ultra convenience.
