Notnow Collective presents Pepper & Honey by Kristina Gavran

There are two types of people. The ones who move away. And the ones who stay and wait...

Enjoyed the Great British Bake Off? Then you will love this show! We want to tackle your senses and your imagination. Pepper and Honey is a new play about two women questioning the meaning of home. The play is timed to perfection in order to deliver a perfect Croatian pepper biscuit, baked live in front of and with the help of the audience. 

The live baking process is intertwined with a story of what it is like to settle in a different country, leaving and returning and making and breaking family traditions.

★★★★ “A warm and gentle show … evocative … Hofman nimbly shifts between the two Anas, the hopeful and “adventurous” immigrant and her tottering, black-clad old “baba” pouring her love into her pastry.” (The Stage)
