Second-year drama students present Death Row Gourmet, a play that uncovers the politics of capital punishment in America through multi-media and a dash of salty language.

A celebrity chef, Rupert Brayer, puts his cooking skills to the test in his new and upcoming TV show, ‘Death Row Gourmet’, creating memorable final meals for inmates on death row. The arrogant chef is challenged by condemned inmate Marla, whose claim of innocence disrupts his perspectives and prompts him to question the morality of the judicial system. Can the truth be discovered in time?
