The Recipe Box
by Del Shores
February 5 to February 22, 2026
World Premiere!!!
Directed by DEL SHORES
THE RECIPE BOX is an emotionally layered Southern dramedy about heartbreak, healing, and unexpected
connection. When Joah leaves his husband Rick for a younger man, Rick is left in chaos. Also left behind is Joah’s outspoken, whiskey-loving, gambling-addicted mother, Lou Wanda, who suddenly finds herself with no home and no plan. Rich in Southern flavor and sharp humor, THE RECIPE BOX serves up a heartfelt exploration of love, loss, and the families we choose.
