‘Old Food With Toby Jones’ is a live, performative reading of Ed Atkins’ book, Old Food, by the actor Toby Jones.
"Scorched by senility and nostalgia, and wracked by all kinds of hunger, Old Food lurches from allegory to listicle, from lyric to menu, fetching up a plummeting, idiomatic and crabbed tableau from the cannibalised remains of each form in turn. Steeped in spoiled language and poorly Britishness, wadded with historicity, melancholy and a bravura kind of stupidity." Ed Atkins
