In the whodunit, chefs from around the world have gathered at Pickachick High School to participate in an international chicken cooking contest sponsored by Captain Curry, founder of the Chicken Hut chain of restaurants.
The contest, which is to be televised on the Let’s Eat Network, descends into chaos when Frank Fricassee, the favored chef, is found dead and his top-secret recipe missing.
Newspaper reporters Burgundy and Carla will work with the studio audience and the school’s students to pluck out the evidence, establishing motives of many suspects to determine the killer.
The studio audience will name the murderer, who could be a different person each performance.
