At the repeated and truculent request of his boss, a waiter at his wits’ end in an ailing surf n’ turf restaurant decides to “go with the flow” on an evening where the restaurant is to be visited by the icy and often disguised food critic Mieville. A peculiar array of patrons mixed with the waiter’s newfound nonchalance towards his job make the prospect of a prized Four Golden Boogie Board review an unlikely feat. With the fate of the restaurant and its dubious combination of customers hanging in the balance, this world-premiere full-length collaboration adeptly lives up to its title, Ménage-À-Plot: A Surf-N-Turf Adventure.

PianoFight tasked three local playwrights, Kelly Anneken, Megan Cohen and Evan Winchester, each with writing a one-act play set in a Surf-N-Turf restaurant. PianoFight then assigned each piece a director, Jessica Holt, Alex Curtis and Addie Ulrey, and separate casts, all charged with working the three separate pieces into one full-length play, Ménage-À-Plot: A Surf-N-Turf Adventure. The seasoned cast of local actors includes Cooper Carlson, Ashley Cowan, Nick Dickson, Rachel Ferensowicz, Wylie Herman, Ray Hobbs, Jared Horney, Catherine Lardas, Charles Lewis, Jennifer Lucas, Leigh Shaw and Andy Strong. Rob Ready and Dan Williams round out the team as producers.
