Hey all- after seeing the light in the Piazza stage in a museum, and murder ballad staged around the bar , I got inspired to possibly stage a musical or play in a restaurant in Brooklyn- any thoughts or ideas of musicals or plays based on around food or in museums. I own a restaurant and thought it would be really interesting to use it for more then just events and traditional service

You could follow the lead of HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH -- the film, not the musical -- and perform it in a restaurant similar to Bilgewater's.

I got to perform Spelling Bee in a gymnasium. The acoustics were kind of insane.
I've always wanted to stage The Drowsy Chaperone in an apartment with the audience kind of seated on sofas, chairs, etc. and have the characters sort of perform their numbers among the audience.

The Most Happy Fella maybe? Smokey Joe's Cafe? RENT? Sweeney Todd?

Samuel D. Hunter's POCATELLO is set in an Olive Garden-like chain restaurant.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
-John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Didn't someone have an idea of mamma Mia being staged in a restaurant? Especially a Greek one.

"Three Postcards" by Craig Lucas and Craig Carnelia takes place at a restaurant in real time - the restaurant pianist is the accompanist and a character.
