Tasteless Ticket Pop Up Love Party at Mother's Pizza

Tuesday, March 15 - Saturday, March 19, 2016

at Mother's Pizza

Back by popular demand, Zuppa Theatre Co. presents Pop-Up Love Party at Mother's Pizza

What is love?

Pop-Up Love Party reimagines Plato’s Symposium in its quest to define love with all its plagues and pleasures by employing aerobics, holding a kangaroo court, exposing audience passion, and pumping out an infectious pop ballad that will mend broken hearts around the world.

Enriching this roller coaster ride through the depths of desire is a 7-course snack menu created by Dartmouth-born, New York-famed, Michelin-starred chef, Daniel Burns. Chef Burns co-owns Luksus, which was recently named one of New York's best new restaurants and one of America's 50 best new restaurants by Bon Appétit. Burns created the menu specifically for Pop-Up Love Party with flavours and textures to heighten moments of the production. A vegetarian option is available. We regret we cannot accommodate any other food sensitivities or requests.

To be certain, this ain’t no dinner theatre. It’s a philosophical feast, a sensory slip n’ slide, and a theatrical experience so unique it could only come from deep in the pulsing Zuppa heart.

Created by Zuppa Theatre Co.
In collaboration with Chef Daniel Burns
Starring Ben Stone, Susan Leblanc, Stewart Legere
Directed by Alex McLean
Video design by Nick Bottomley

Locally-loved and accomplished chef, Dennis Johnston of former FID restaurant fame, will act as head chef for the production, overseeing the preparation of Daniel Burns' menu at Mother’s Pizza.
