And yes, everyone gets cookies. Over 24,000 served...
In Heather Gold’s innovative, smash-hit debut, “she sifts through the complexities of sexuality and identity with baking's simple truths.” (Robert Avila, SFBG). Heather tells her coming-of-age story as she makes chocolate chip cookies with the audience through her own hilarious and moving exploration of the recipe: heterosexuality (DRY), lesbianism (WET), the Left (MIX) and other tasty 1980s tunes and secret ingredients. Gold reveals the coming out story as a universal coming-of-self story and makes mincemeat of the identities that keep us from our real selves and each other. The show played over a year in San Francisco, showed at Ars Nova in NY and tours.
“The real surprise of the show is not only the eclectic crowd of tourists, businesspeople, foodies and theater hounds but the effortless way Gold is able to connect with all of them.”
