SYNOPSIS
Its Joes birthday. Hes busy in the kitchen preparing a celebratory dinner, hoping to rekindle his relationship with his estranged wife, Meagan. The preparations for such an important night are complicated enough without the constant interruptions from the ghost of his cabaret-singing Mother. Emerging from the pantry in full showstopping glamour, she belts out advice concerning love, life and false teeth in between singing from her extensive repertoire of cabaret hits. Things could get messy once Meagan arrives but of course the show must go on! A dark and witty play, full of sweet and sour songs, Kitchen Diva is a scrumptious feast of cooking, cabaret and mayhem.
