Lullaby for Scavengers
One of the most beautiful, funny and moving plays of the year.
"A crazy, disgusting, delightful, intelligent and radical experience... A macabre fantasy of the highest order." DIACRITIK
"A provocateur with a cause." parallexi
"Lullaby for Scavengers is a strikingly beautiful hour, as Noble struggles to live among humans as well as some unloved members of the animal kingdom (foxes included) and seems to question: who’s the real vermin here?" The Guardian
"It’s grisly, gimmicky, sometimes repulsive, sometimes operating in the grey areas of both morality and legality. It’s also bold, funny, wildly inventive and finally rather gorgeous." The Times
"Baden mit Maden" Leipzieger Volkszeitung
"I'm not afraid to shock people, but I do make sure that I always have enough money with me to pay back a number of tickets." Gijs Suy interviews Kim Noble on the occasion of The Theater Festival 2022
"Lullaby for Scavengers thus confronts us with the fragility of the condition humaine, with loneliness and death in a quirky absurd-humorous way." pzazz
"Crazy and wonderful!" Tribune de Genève
"Sublime depiction of a deeply tragic search for acceptance." Theaterkrant
"Lullaby for Scavengers is a collage performance with ingeniously constructed storylines and characters, but its dramaturgical tightness has an organic and self-evident origin: the utterly self-evident observation that Kim Noble is none other than Kim Noble." Etcetera
"Brilliant according to some, disgusting according to others, unforgettable either way. London artist, comedian, provocateur and poetsman Kim Noble sings his Lullaby for scavengers. 'We are all vermin.'" De Standaard
