Cooking with Butter?
Director
written and composed by Annie Brown
This original musical Maggie, an Oklahoma high school senior, as she explores sandwiches, love, and societal expectations to uncover who she truly is and has always been.
Inspired by a competitive Speech & Debate speech from an Oklahoma high schooler during the 2020 presidential election, “Cooking With Butter” explores human identity and sexuality in a world where the political climate in which we were raised often impacts how we view love.
