For the Love of Spam is a one-woman comedic stand-up, puppetry, participatory, and multisensory show dedicated to two things: canned meat and colonialism.

We’ll find out how this (delicious) canned meat symbolizes modern-day colonialism, and threatens the very livelihood of a whole civilization in these ‘West vs East’ political games.

Can this formerly catholic, angry and god-fearing woman help educate (and feed) the masses, all while ‘liberating’ her island?

Note: This performance contains mild language. Reference to body shaming, natural disasters, and racism. One brief physical representation of choking, one longer scene of performer cooking and eating meat products, shooting (one short scene), suicide (one instance, depicted through a puppet).
