- The Hand That Feed: a musical about #FoodCrimeBirmingham tackling food crime with musical theatre! ‘The Hand That Feeds’ is a theatrical song cycle about food crime, a widespread and growing problem that affects us all. The project was conceived of by Kate Cooper, founder of The New Optimists: a forum for regional scientists. The project aims to raise public awareness of the issues and the widespread implications of food crime — both locally and nationally — and to create a platform for discussion. The New Optimists’ conviction is that a fun arts-based events can have a big impact in enabling a wider audience to engage in social matters, such as food crime, where the role of science, here the forensics of food fraud, play a big part in making our world a better place. The content is being built with people from across the food supply network in Birmingham, arguably the largest economic sector in the city.
