Cake & Violence is a food fetish fever dream of a solo show brought to you by writer & New Yorker cartoonist, Natalie "Great Job Nat" Badillo. Over the course of the show, Nat will smash a few cakes all in an effort to get you to FEEL something. It's comedic. It's dramatic. It's about not only reconnecting to your body, but to every body. TL;DR — It's sort of a stand-up show... but darker and with a lot more cake.
Performed by Nat Badillo (the internet's @greatjobnat). Directed by Broad City's Ryan Cunningham.
