The Meat Kings! (Inc.) of Brooklyn Heights
Every dream has a price…..
Production images are in for Hannah Doran’s fierce and blisteringly funny debut play The Meat Kings! (Inc.) of Brooklyn Heights which is now on at Park Theatre. Directed by George Turvey, Artistic Director of Papatango (Shook, Sky Arts), The Meat Kings! (Inc.) of Brooklyn Heights runs until 29 November 2025.
T is the new summer hire at Cafarelli & Sons, an iconic New York butcher, but life in a messy cutting room isn’t glamorous. No-nonsense boss Paula tries to keep everyone in line, but the business is struggling: when the season ends, someone’s for the chop.
With the American dream of a better life hanging in the balance, T and her colleagues turned competitors sweat for their jobs. Alliances form, romance sparks, and loyalties shift. But how far will they go to secure their future?
The Meat Kings! (Inc.) Of Brooklyn Heights carves into the dark underbelly of America’s anti-immigration policies and the brutal sacrifices that drive the pursuit of prosperity.
‘Every year the Papatango Prize comes up with a bit of a cracker.’ The Guardian.
