Food & Writing.
Goes together like love & marriage.
Inside this collection, you can feast upon three plays.
SENSUOUS GOURMET & THE SICHUAN PEPPERCORN
This play was conceived in Boulder, Colorado while conducting a private workshop with friends in a private residence. I wanted to marry our senses to our creative muses. I gathered an array of differing scents. Vanilla. Sichuan Peppercorns. Lavender. Mint. Orange. Olive oil. Cinnamon. Each writer sniffed inhaled breathed deeply and let the aroma speak to our soul. Our inner voices. Then, we wrote.
And shared, like a meal, family-style.
THE FAMISHED
Hunger can transport us to places we've never been, to places we never imagined, to places outside ourselves. That's what this play explores, how two people meet up and need each other. This play was inspired by a true request from a total stranger that I cook for him, for hire, in my home.
SCENES FROM A CHINESE RESTAURANT
This play is inspired by all my friends in the dating world, and all my friends who love to eat. How does our relationship to food affect our relationship to each other. Many of my omnivore buddies won't date vegans. Adventurous eaters versus meat and potatoes. Food is more than meets the eye.
This collection of plays can be purchased from JAC Publishing, and is available on Amazon.com
Bon Appetit!

Sensuous Gourmet & The Szechuan Peppercorn
My play SENSUOUS GOURMET & THE SZECHUAN PEPPERCORN was one of six plays chosen for n.u.f.a.n. ensembles Table & Chairs Festival. The play will be performed in Chicago at the ViaDuct Theater October 17th and 18th.
Sheri, AKA the Sensuous Gourmet, teaches Travis that if you know how to eat, you know how to make love. You eat with your mouth, your eyes, your lips, your tongue....dinner is foreplay. Yes, it's a comedy.
If you're in Chicago, or know people in the Chicago, please send them. If you're interested in reading the play, you'll find the comedy in a collection of short food themed plays called SCENES FROM A CHINESE RESTAURANT, available on Amazon and through JAC PUBLISHING.
