Risotto

BRANDON SHALANSKY

 
Risotto, a short play by Brandon Shalansky

Risotto starts out as a deceptively innocent dinner party, then it descends into a wickedly funny nightmare. The dialogue is sharp and unexpected. It may be short, but it's still a full and engaging play, that seduces you into reading it again and again.

—Ken Williams, co-author of Gabriel Dumont’s Wild West Show
