"On the final night of her reign as World Queen of the Cocoa Bean, the glamorous, often eccentric and hilariously unpredictable Cookie Conwell fulfills her lifelong dream of hosting 'The Chocolate Show!,' where she must choose her successor," press notes state. "Who will be the next to wear the solid chocolate crown? How will Cookie handle the transfer of power? And, oh yeah, is chocolate really bad for dogs?"
Audiences at the opening night performance will each receive the world's most expensive chocolate truffle by chocolatier Fritz Knipschildt, hand-crafted using a dark chocolate, classic ganache and a French Perigord truffle.
The production features choreography by Grady McLeod Bowman and music direction by Jeffrey Klitz.
The Chocolate Show! features scenic design by Steven C. Kemp, lighting design by Jimmy Lawlor, costume design by Orli Nativ and sound design by Nick Kourtides.
