A victim in "Murder(s)! A Mostly True Crime Story," Are We Delicious, 2024.

Are We Delicious? resurfaced in 2023 following an extended pause due to the pandemic. The Madison ensemble most often writes, rehearses and performs a one-hour show in two weeks, but this time is back with a revival of a show the group produced in 2019. Murder!(s), subtitled “a (mostly) true crime story,” concerns a murder-for-insurance-money scheme gone awry. The production is a fundraiser to help defray the costs to mount the show at the Green Bay Fringe Festival. Shows at 8 p.m., June 20-22 and 27, and 8 and 10 p.m., June 28.

media release: Are We Delicious? is an ensemble of Madison performer-writers who write, rehearse and perform a one-hour comedy-variety show in a single week. Everyone writes, everyone acts and no one can rest until the final curtain.

After its triumphant debut at the Bur Oak in 2019, Are We Delicious is thrilled to announce the revival of this uproarious show! Join AWD for the revival and fundraiser for two weekends in June at Broom Street Theater. Then AWD will hit the road to The (inaugural) Green Bay Fringe Festival, bringing back the majority of the original stellar cast, as well as the fantastic director.
