THE SPITFIRE GRILL

THE SPITFIRE GRILL is a beautiful musical about second chances.

A troubled young parolee yearning for a fresh start follows her dreams to Wisconsin, based on a page from an old travel book, only to find a small town with a gritty heart aching with longing and regret. Unexpectedly discovering the healing power of community while working at the Spitfire Grill, Percy reawakens the entire town’s capacity for rebirth, forgiveness and hope. Set to a melodic folk-inspired score, THE SPITFIRE GRILL is a joyous celebration of human kindness.

A soul-satisfying… work of theatrical resourcefulness. A compelling story that flows with grace and carries the rush of anticipation. The story moves, the characters have many dimensions and their transformations are plausible and moving. The musical is freeing. It is penetrated by honesty and it glows.

Soaring melodies!… Well before the show reaches its conclusion, many… city slickers in the audience may be ready to enter Percy’s raffle.

— The Wall Street Journal

An abundance of warmth, spirit and goodwill!… Some of the most engaging and instantly infectious melodies I’ve heard in an original musical in some time.

— USA Today

Soulful… The amiable country-flavored tunes and lyrics are rendered with the kind of conviction and expertise that make them transcendent. What in normal times would be a joy is, in these troubled ones, sheer nourishment.
