If you asked me what was one of my favorite experiences last year, I would have said The Voices In Your Head co-created by Billy McEntee and directed by Ryan Dobrin. Well those two are teaming up again for a new play for an audience of just five centered around a meal in a Brooklyn Home this fall.

The production stars Lortel nominee Adam Chanler-Berat and Lortel and Drama Desk Nominee Kyle Beltran. No-fee tickets cost $55, include a meal, and can now be reserved here.
