What goes better with family drama than a hotdish? Join us in the Recovery Lounge for the New York premiere production of this witty and heartfelt play, Hotdish, by Brendan Healy. Kayla is feeling increasingly trapped by her collapsing family. Her unemployed older brother, Toby, has moved in with her. Instead of applying for jobs and looking for his own place, Toby invests all his efforts in auditioning for his favorite reality TV cooking show. As tensions rise both relationships and dreams are put to the test...can a casserole showdown heal this family?
WRITTEN by Brendan Healy
DIRECTED by Gabrielle Schutz
PERFORMED by Casey Galligan, Mike Jones, Zac Edwards, LeAnn Yelton, and Linda Murphy
