dc.description.abstractThis thesis project playfully intertwines the concept of a hypothetical theatre café menu and naturally derived colourant. The remnants or same ingredients that come from the recipes are made into naturally derived colourant, for scenic art surface applications, that would be utilised in live performance. I add to the global conversation around more sustainable colourants in reference to the climate crisis. I have chosen this lighthearted interconnection to foster engagement within the core concept. I assert that by drawing people together amidst the pleasure and comfort of a café environment, we move closer to achieving the 3 Cs of Ecoscenography: Co-creation, Celebration, Circulation. Co-creation in the duality of both café items and resultant colourant, celebration in the community aspect of meeting to eat and drink and experience live performance, and circulation towards engendering a closed loop mindset in the creation of theatrical scenery.
