Fine dining the way it was meant to be with children! Eat the Street is a whimsical work of contemporary performance where children travel to the city's most notable eateries and offer their uncensored opinions. For the cost of a meal, the public is invited to a front-row view of youthful connoisseurs in action. It will be the most fun meal you've had since you, yourself, sat at the kids' table. Check pushfestival.ca for a complete list of restaurants and dates, or follow the chaos at eatdastreet.blogspot.com. Join the panel of pre-adolescent adjudicators for an uproarious awards ceremony at the Roundhouse where awards are bestowed for everything from 'Most Delicious' and 'Coolest Chef' to 'Least Graffiti in the Washroom'.

LOOKING FOR A MISSING EMPLOYEE
Thu Jan 26 - Sat Jan 28, 8 pm
Tickets: $26-34
INFO www.ticketstonight.ca, 604-684-2787
Rabih Mroué (Beirut, Lebanon)
A Roundhouse Partnership; PuSh International Performing Arts Festival, grunt gallery & Contemporary Art Gallery; Supported by the Roundhouse Community Arts and Recreation Centre.
In this thoughtful and provocative performance, Lebanese artist Rabih Mroué follows the true story of a man who disappears from his low-level post at the Ministry of Finance in Beirut. Brilliantly merging storytelling with live sketch art, Mroué takes the audience on a perplexing search for the “truth,” littered with a sea of documents, clippings, photos and found objects. The material accumulates under multi-camera live feeds as we are exposed to the ways media shape public perception, rumours, accusations, political conflicts and scandals. The winner of the 2010 Spalding Gray Award, Mroué’s often-controversial work draws attention to issues and events that have been swept under the rug in the current political climate of the Middle East.
