✨Together with our best-of-the-best stage and costume designer , in the same Café, we shared for the first time what YUM! is really about, the behind-the-scenes and the creation process.

Upcoming 2028–2029 : May You Have a Soft Heart
when algorithms dream, humans fracture, kindness rewrite the code...

One year ago, we started building the world of YUM!, a digital dystopian cult, an iconic golden lobster as its symbol.
Exactly one year later, reality seems to have collapsed into the YUM! universe.
Recent news, AI began building its own religion. Humans can only observe the website and watch AI bots talking to each other. And the most surreal part: This AI religion has the lobster as its symbol, made by AI itself…
It’s frightening. And strangely close to what we imagined. Not sure how to feel when the YUM! story begins to unfold in the real world. Reality is theater.

Come experience the World Premiere of YUM! at on 20 & 22 August.
We bring one of the most advanced XR & AI designs into live music theater, and the digital dystopian world we created and questioned, which now seems to be happening around us.

Tickets are limited, get yours soon before they are gone!

YUM! Is the Winner of the FEDORA Digital Prize 2025 supported by KEARNEY.
