Three acts. Twelve scenes. EAT: En Couleur Vives (In Living Color) is a dynamic stage play that blends the worlds of food, family, and ballroom culture to explore grief, queer resilience, and the complexities of chosen kinship. At its heart is Leo, a talented chef mourning his mother while & his best friend Charlie, grappling with school as a master’s degree student, now part of a competing house. As the story unfolds through scenes in their condo and a high-stakes ballroom showdown, themes of legacy, healing, and community simmer beneath every moment.
