The Spitfire Grill 

Music and Book by James Valcq

Lyrics and Book by Fred Alley

Based on the film by Lee David Zlotoff

Directed by Diane Johnston

Inspired by hit the 1996 film, The Spitfire Grill, is a heartwarming and inspirational musical tale of redemption, perserverance and family. A feisty parolee follows her dreams, based on a page from an old travel book, to a small town in Wisconsin and finds a place for herself working at Hannah's Spitfire Grill. The Grill is for sale, but there are no takers for the only eatery in the depressed town, so newcomer Percy convinces Hannah to raffle it off. Entry fees are one hundred dollars and the best essay on why you want the Grill wins. Soon, mail arrives by the wheelbarrow and things really start cookin' at the Spitfire Grill.

Run time is approximately 2 hours and 15 minutes, with an intermission between acts.

Content Warning: Contains mild adult themes (including mentions of sexual assault and domestic violence) and is recommended for high school students and older.
