Brookhaven’s premiere French restaurant Petite Violette is turning 50! To celebrate, renowned chef Gordon Slamsey and some of his famous celebrity chefs are hosting a culinary competition for the ages!
They will test the knowledge, dedication and knife skills of wannabe cooks. And one lucky contestant will win $150,000 and fulfill their dream of becoming the new executive chef at Petite’s soon-to-open sister restaurant, “The Itty-Bitty Bistro!”
There’s just one problem, someone in this kitchen is serving their dishes with a side of “murder!” Will anyone have what it takes to survive this “cutthroat kitchen” and not end up getting “chopped?” One thing is for sure, you’re going to need to be able to do more than bake, braise or boil to survive all this butchery! Join us every Friday and Saturday night as Murder, Mystery, and Mayhem presents “Hell’s Killer Kitchen”.

“Actress Adrienne Lecouvreur may be admired and loved by many, but she only has eyes for one: Maurizio, the Count of Saxony, to whom she gifts a bouquet of violets to show her love before going on stage. Maurizio, however, is also having an affair with the Princess de Bouillon, which he tries to break off in order to be with Adrienne. The two women soon become mutually suspicious, realizing the other to be in love with Maurizio as well. Feelings of jealousy and anger build up until a ferocious confrontation breaks out between them. Believing Maurizio to be lost to her, a distraught Adrienne refuses to go back on stage and declines to celebrate her name day with her theatre troupe. In her solitude, is Adrienne now most vulnerable to an attack fueled by the Princess’ malice? Or might Maurizio show up to save the day?”
Dinner and a Diva: Adriana Lecouvreur is sponsored by Ron Kite and Laura Brookshire.

Join us and Capitol City Opera Company on Tuesday, August 20th, for Dinner and a Diva: a night of delicious food and performances from Ludwig van Beethoven’s Fidelio.
“Fidelio is inspired by a true story from the French Revolution. It centres on a woman, Leonore, whose husband Florestanhas been secretly imprisoned by his political rival – the villainous Don Pizarro. Determined to rescue him, Leonore disguises herself as a young man named ‘Fidelio’ and gets a job in the prison where he is being held. As Fidelio, she earns the trust of the jailer Rocco (and also the affections of his daughter Marzelline, which leads to some awkward moments…) On the orders of Don Pizarro, Rocco is slowly starving Florestan to death. However, when news breaks that a government official named Don Fernando is coming to investigate rumours of cruelty in the prison, Don Pizarro decides to speed things up and execute Florestan himself – as soon as possible. Will Leonore be in time to save him?”
