Chicken & Biscuits
Chicken & Biscuits is serving up big laughs at the Springer Opera House starting April 17. One family. One funeral. And too many years to count of family drama! The Jenkins family is coming together to celebrate the life of their dearly departed father but any hopes for a peaceful reunion unravel when a family secret threatens to derail the service.
As the funeral unfolds, tensions rise, particularly between sisters Baneatta and Beverly, whose long-standing rivalry bubbles to the surface… especially with Beverly’s abundant “blessings” on display.
Meanwhile, Baneatta’s son brings his neurotic Jewish boyfriend along, knowing Baneatta disapproves, and Beverly’s nosy daughter keeps asking questions no one wants to answer. Baneatta’s pastor husband tries to mediate the family drama, but when that shocking family secret reveals itself at the pulpit, the two sisters are faced with a truth that could either heal or break them.
In Chicken & Biscuits, no secret stays hidden, no grudge stays quiet, and no family is as perfect as it pretends to be. It’s bold, it’s messy, and it’s full of heart because sometimes the people who drive you the craziest are the ones who know you best.
