Half Moon Theatre offers playful cuisine

Half Moon Theatre will present its sixth annual Ten-Minute Play Festival on March 11 to 13 at The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park. Each of the eight participating playwrights (seven of whom live in the Hudson Valley) was given a dish to “dish” about in their play, and each staged reading will be followed by a tasting prepared by CIA chefs for audiences after the Friday and Saturday shows. (The Sunday matinee will not include a post-show reception.)
