S07 E03 - "Order Up" & Lisa Quoresimo

Hello there and welcome to another episode of our 7th Season of Theatrical Shenanigans! Today we are bringing you the play “Order Up” by Lynne Herrell. Lynne Herrell is a California based playwright with a flair for sharp dialogue, vivid characters, and laugh-out-loud situations. Her work blends physical comedy with clever wordplay, creating theatrical experiences that are both accessible and memorable for diverse audiences. Drawing on her background in storytelling and performance as a community theatre actor and director, Lynne delights in crafting plays that are simple to produce yet rich with humour, making them ideal for everything from intimate staged readings to fully realized productions. When asked about her inspiration for “Order Up!” Lynne said: “I began developing Order Up! because I love putting wacky characters into ordinary places and watching the comedy unfold.” Synopsis: Chef once cooked for the rich and famous in New York City but now (after an incident) has been reduced to cooking burgers in a fast-food café, in England. But, one thing he’s never done is given up on his dreams and maybe today is the day that will pay off.
