About
Step into the dazzling world of CAKE, a wickedly sharp satire exploring the perils of cancel culture and the power of reputation. In this vibrant reimagination of Marie Antoinette's life, audiences join the Queen's Royal Court, witnessing her scandalous humiliations and navigating her desperate attempts to escape cancellation. With the help of her shy but loyal King Louis and a self-proclaimed PR expert, Therese, Marie plunges into an extravagant world of orgies, alcohol, and debauchery to save her image.
This provocative comedy serves as a deliciously dark exploration of morality as social currency and the consequences of our self-righteous pursuit of the moral high ground. Set in the 19th century and infused with biting meta wit, CAKE invites audiences to reflect on their own accountability while revelling in the unapologetic excess of a world gone mad. Experience the allure of villainy and indulge in the irresistible spectacle of CAKE.
