A fairground in Killaloe, Ontario is home to the annual Wayne Rose Memorial Chili-Cook Off, where Killaloe residents come each year to compete for the honour and the cash prize. Ava Rose wants to win her hometown chili cook-off after years (16 to be exact) of failing to nab the top prize. Before the day is over, childhood secrets will be exposed, blood will be shed, a pot of chili will be tossed, and another sabotaged. If Ava can piece together her father’s missing five-alarm chili recipe and keep her assistant from maiming herself, she is sure to finally take home the trophy, cash prize and most importantly — the prestige of the annual Memorial Chili Cook Off named for her father Wayne Rose.

As the sauce simmers, bitter rivalry, mystery and zany comedy come to a rolling boil in this hilarious play!

Be part of the opening night gala on Friday, April 4. Cocktails and finger foods will be served from 5:30 to 7 p.m., followed by the opening night performance of Five Alarm. Cocktails will be provided by NB Distillers, wine and beer by Niagara College School of Culinary Arts. Food provided by Karen’s Catering, vegetarian options available. One complimentary beverage and charcuterie cup with each ticket.

Regular performances begin Saturday, April 5, at 7 p.m. The Canal Bistro will be open for beverages and snacks, and door prizes will be drawn at every performance.
