SUMMARY:Too Many Cooks
DESCRIPTION:Volcano Theatre Company presents Too Many Cooks\, a fast-moving comedy by Marsha Kash and Douglas E. Hughes\, running June 12 through August 1\, 2026\, in the Volcano Amphitheatre. Presented with Orlando’s Pine Grove Market\, this lively production brings mistaken identities\, mob trouble\, music\, and plenty of mayhem to the outdoor stage. \n\n\n\nIt is opening night at Irving Bubbalowe’s new restaurant just over the Canadian border\, and he is counting on the arrival of world-renowned Italian singing chef Francois LaPlouffe to make the evening a success. Instead\, he finds himself dealing with a delivery man on the run from a Chicago mob boss\, a gangster shootout\, a murder investigation\, a daughter with a plan of her own\, and a Canadian Mountie trying to solve a case without a body. The result is a comic scramble as everyone tries to figure out whether the restaurant will ever actually open. \n\n\n\nToo Many Cooks runs June 12 through August 1\, 2026\, at the Volcano Amphitheatre in Volcano\, CA. Gates open at 6:30 PM for picnicking\, and the curtain rises at 8 PM. \n\n\n\nTickets are $24 for general seating\, $22 for seniors\, and $18 for guests under 18\, plus convenience fees when purchased online.
