“An alluring new play about family, nourishment and the seductive whirlpool of online fame.” – Globe & Mail     
    
Bette is a popular cooking show host whose young-mom persona is about to expire – both on TV and in real life. With her son KitKat spending more time in the deep space of the internet, and her show failing, they hatch a plan for him to make a much-anticipated reappearance to boost ratings. What could possibly go wrong when family dysfunction goes live on air? 

A play about finding your way in the kitchen of life, this gripping duet mixes dynamic camera angles, real-life cooking and online fame all before a live studio audience.
