Sabrina Mahfouz’s Chef originally premiered at the Edinburgh Festival 2014 to great critical acclaim, winning a Scotsman Fringe First Award and the production gained a Stage Award for Acting Excellence.
The Gaiety’s new production of the play is directed by André Agius, who has been praised for his razor-sharp pace, dialogue and deeply layered characters, his strong visual and aural coherence, and for his bold and inventive directorial style.
Chef is part of the Traverse's £1 Tickets Project.
