Upstart Creatures is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to creating (meta)physical feasts that combine theater and food.

All our events are free, with a mouth-watering menu prepared and served by the artists themselves; a guaranteed once-in-a-lifetime experience made possible by the generosity of our sponsors and participating artists.  

Come to get fed... stay to get nourished.

                      …a place of bliss

In the Purlieues of Heav'n, and therein placed

A race of Upstart Creatures

Paradise Lost, Book 2, Lines 832-4

The Upstarts didn’t mean to start a theatre company.  But after rehearsing Paradise Lost for six months, collaborating on the epic task of adapting Milton's canonical work and planning the menu for the multi-course, mouth-watering meals that were incorporated into the day-long event, we realized we missed each other.  And that we had something special going.
