Becoming Nigella (In Concert)

Funny, heartwarming and mouth-salivating new musical, inspired by Nigella Lawson. Expect laughter, tears, roast chicken and some very imperfect cooking.

When Anna’s estranged mother passes away, she inherits Nigella Lawson’s seminal cookbook ‘How to Eat’. She is surprised to find the book is accompanied by the spirit of Nigella Lawson, who pushes Anna into learning the joys of cooking, failing, and, most importantly, eating. Expect laughter, tears, roast chicken and some very imperfect cooking.
