The Last Restaurant, was a unique performance event for just 30 people at a time Malvern Cube. Re-creating a sensory and surreal restaurant at the end of the world, where all consumable things on earth has been consumed and there was no more food, but people still attended restaurants for the community ritual of being together and sharing time and space.

Blending live performance, clowning, stories, digital animation and gentle audience participation (but only if you choose to engage with it!), The Last Restaurant brought together the quirky performance skills of Strange Futures Theatre Company with the creativity of local writers, performers, and the work of young people from St Matthias Primary School in collaboration with animation students from the University of Worcester, to provide “food for thought” about the relationship between food, stories and the landscape.
