Bougie Lanre’s Boulangerie
As part of For The Culture: Celebrations of Blackness FestivalBougie Lanre's Boulangerie by acclaimed poet Kareem Parkins-Brown is an existential poetry talk show chronicling Kareem's years working in the hospitality industry, attempting to make ends meet as a Black, working-class artist who cares more about craft than consumerism.
It’s the job of long-suffering waiting staff, servers and cooks to be kind; serving and embodying kindness, with a smile on each and every shift. Or is it…? Putting the ‘cuss dem’ in customer, through ingenious wordplay and graphic visuals, Kareem exposes a world of raging waiters, kind cooks, rude customers and gentrifying pop-ups that had audiences howling- as well as reconsidering how they behave in restaurants.
