A true storytelling dinner theater serving bespoke courses inspired by each performance.

Imagine a dinner party where every story spun across the table was kindling for the courses to come. Where a summer vacation to Sicily gets interesting in a hurry and plunges straight into a tantalizing al dente mystery in sauce and spice.
YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS are going directly towards helping us RENT THE SPACE for the party - other than that, we're doing this all out of pocket to bring the storytelling and food worlds together for a seriously lovely dinner party.

Our founders, Luke and Eugene, met over beers at Pacific Standard on 4th Avenue in Brooklyn and discovered a shared love for storytelling and food. Inspired by This American Life, The Moth, and the numerous storytelling shows and podcasts circulating around New York, Luke wanted to find a way he could express his stories with the craft he was perfecting at the French Culinary Institute. Eugene had been running storytelling shows in New York for five years and had a feeling he and Luke could make it happen. Together, with the help of a dedicated bunch of friends, we cast, cooked, tasted, and designed the dual menu/playbill that became our first show's five course experiment. It never would have happened without the help of our dedicated friends Miguel de Leon, Caitlin MacCrae, Matthew Hannigan, Christina Ng, Cal Egan, Steven Berkowitz, Albert R. Matheny IV, Ariel Samach, Kaitlin Fritz, Stephanie Petagno, Emily Holleman, Sara Kinney, Kathleen Miller, Mark Winkel, and Ida Benedetto.
