Service

By Lachlan Grogan

The waiter forgets to put through the rocket and pear salad on table six, a passionate conversation has shattered a wine glass crime scene onto the floor, and the service bell rings out like a metronome across the packed-out room. This is a high-octane dance-theatre collision diving headfirst into the controlled chaos of the hospitality industry.

Service holds a mirror to the innate theatricality of restaurant dining at every level. Whether you’ve spent long nights waiting tables or just waited too long for your meal to arrive, this is hospitality as you’ve never seen it before.
