The Scoop

Lust Supper, Part I of The Faminly Trilogy, launches this trio of plays with a biopsy of the broken family played out at the dinner table through scenarios of addiction, manipulation and a lust for deliverance. Willsom is planning a dinner in the hopes of reuniting with Naomer after a forty year separation. Naomer, however, is lacing the dinner wine with heavy medication. Their mystic offspring are cooking up a plot to turn back time and reinvent their family. Dinner is served, plans collide and chaos erupts in a volcano of Vaudevillian lava.

-- Adrienne Martini, The Austin Chronicle

""It's not your ordinary meal, but it's one you won't soon forget. Bon appetit."
