PERTH FESTIVAL: Haribo Kimchi

Welcome to a pohjangmacha, one of the typical late-night snack bars found on the streets of South Korea.

It’s here self described hybrid theatre-maker Jaha Koo explores food as a haven for those dislocated from culture during the Perth Festival premiere of his multi-sensory theatrical experience Haribo Kimchi.

In a series of absurd and intimate anecdotes, Koo recounts the evolution of Kimchi culture, the bitter pain of unadulterated racism, the shame of trying to blend in and the deep umami taste of home.

RTRFMs Danielle Raffaele spoke with Koo for Breakfast with Pam about the wonder and science of food, identity, culture and his innovative theatre practice which centres the audience’s experience.
