Glee meets Gordon Ramsay: "Top Chef: A Soup Opera"
Glee meets Gordon Ramsay: "Top Chef: A Soup Opera"
The kids at Penn Glee Club are putting on a show inspired by some of our favorite kitchen dramas. "Top Chef: A Soup Opera" debuts this Thursday at the Annenberg Center's Zellerbach Theatre.
"Think Ratatouille, Top Chef and Hell's Kitchen, all at the same time," says cast member Chris Wogan.
In a comedic musical revue directed by Eduardo Placer, the show follows Darren, a failing restaurateur obsessed with his own fleeting celebrity and known for having "the fastest blade in North America." While Darren tries to revive his failing career by opening a new restaurant, a famous critic whose harsh reviews have been known to close restaurants faster than you can say mise en place sets his sights on our blade-slinging protagonist. The critic returns, disaster strikes, '80s power ballads are sung — good times.
You can catch performances this Thursday, Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m. Tickets are $15 and available online.
