The O’Mallery siblings have gathered in their local park for a typical family barbecue—or so they want their sister Barbara to think. In reality, they’ve staged a hilariously chaotic, open-air intervention to confront her drug spiral. Armed with whiskey, pills of their own, and a backup Taser, this deeply dysfunctional family is entirely unprepared for what happens next.

Just when you think you have them figured out, Barbecue fires up a mind-bending twist that flips the script. The same intervention resets with an entirely different cast, transforming a raucous family comedy into a sharp, satirical takedown of racial politics, class stereotypes, and America's obsession with self-destruction as entertainment.

Fierce, funny, and shockingly subversive, Robert O'Hara's hit play serves up an unpredictable night of theatre that questions the stories we tell, and choose to believe, about who we are.

Don't miss the comedy that everyone will be talking about!
