"I do not believe that the Catholic Church has a monopoly on miracles. Turning food into flesh, walking on water, calming the storm, feeding the multitude, exorcism, resurrection, transfiguration. These miracles have happened to me—in the club, in bed, in the airport, in the sea. I wonder if tonight you might help me make another miracle... "
Performed by Luke Macaronas, written and devised in collaboration with Sar Fegan, This is My Body is a participatory queer ritual that traces the history of the Eucharist in order to uncover the erotic, subversive and sacred meanings of breaking bread and drinking flesh and blood. Part-theatre, part-dance, part-ceremony, this show cracks open a Pandora's box of orgiastic rites and disordered feasting that lies just beneath the veneer of the world's largest religion. It is an experiment in turning food into flesh and flesh into food that promises to be different every night.
