Let Them Eat Chaos

Let Them Eat Chaos is a long poem and the second studio album by British poet and spoken-word artist Kae Tempest. In a dense, lyrical composition, Tempest combines poetry, social analysis, and musical energy into a haunting wake-up call.

With radical honesty and great empathy, Tempest tells of alienation, social inequality, and the emotional exhaustion of our late-modern society, while simultaneously opening up a space for hope: for encounter, change, and a different way of living together.

Director Sebastian Nübling brings Tempest's work to the stage as a performative exploration. In the chamber, seven characters meet each other—perhaps even themselves—for the first time. The result is a poetically charged evening of theater about the chaos of our time and what might unite us within it.
