The Poetry of Pizza

by Deborah Brevoort

Co-Winner of the 2005 Festival of New Plays

A truly original mid-life romantic comedy…with pepperoni.

You’re guaranteed to fall in love with love all over again with the funniest, quirkiest, most original romantic comedy we’ve seen in years. “The Poetry of Pizza” will make you stand up and cheer from the sheer fun of it all.

Professor Sarah Middleton arrives in Denmark to teach at the University of Copenhagen only to find her life irrevocably thrown off course when she stops by the Vermundsgade Pizzeria one night for a pizza. The unlikely courtship that ensues arouses the curiosity and passions of everyone, setting in motion a rash of culinary courtships and a chaotic comedy of errors. Have your fill of belly laughs, the sweet fragrance of love, lunacy and “The Poetry of Pizza’ is in the summer air.
