The Spitfire Grill is a moving musical tale of perseverance, redemption and family. Join us as we follow Percy, a recent parolee looking for a new beginning in a shrinking Midwestern town, who takes the only job she can get, at Hannah’s run-down eatery. Can the newcomer form meaningful relationships and save the diner, the town and, ultimately, herself? There’s only one way to find out! Join TheaterCNU to see what’s cookin’ at The Spitfire Grill.

“Soulful ... The amiable country-flavored tunes and lyrics are … transcendent. What in normal times would be a joy is, in these troubled ones, sheer nourishment.” – New York magazine
