Today the producers of Network on Broadway announced FOODWORK, an exclusive immersive onstage culinary experience at the Belasco Theatre (111 West 44th Street).

Curated by former White House Executive Pastry Chef Bill Yosses, FOODWORK is NETWORK's own fine dining restaurant.

FOODWORK ticket buyers will be escorted into a private entrance of the Belasco Theatre and have the opportunity to explore the stage as the actors prepare around them. They will enjoy a four-course meal and cocktails throughout the evening, with the play's action surrounding them onstage.

Bill Yosses is the chef/owner of PALAIS/PERFECT PIE, an artisanal catering/bakery in New York City. He previously held the title of White House Executive Pastry Chef for 7 years. As pastry chef of the White House he planned desserts for the First Family and their guests from breakfast meetings to State Dinners, over the span of the Bush and Obama administrations.

Howard Beale, news anchor-man, isn't pulling in the viewers. In his final broadcast he unravels live on screen. But when ratings soar, the Network seizes on their newfound populist prophet, and Howard becomes the biggest thing on TV. NETWORK depicts a media landscape where opinion trumps fact. Hilarious and hair-raising by turns, the iconic film by Paddy Chayefsky won four Academy Awards in 1976.

NETWORK made its world premiere in a critically acclaimed production at The National Theatre from November 13, 2017 through March 24, 2018, produced in association with Patrick Myles, David Luff, Ros Povey and Lee Menzies.
