Katori Hall’s play focuses on Cordell, who is trying to win a culinary competition while keeping his life together
In a capacious kitchen in Memphis, Tennessee, Cordell is feverishly preparing for the annual local Hot Wing contest. He has hundreds of chicken wings to prep, a complicated secret sauce to perfect and a team of friends/helpers — aka the “New Wing Order” — who don’t always respond to instruction with the precision Cordell would like. It is not just the marinade that is about to get spicy in Katori Hall’s sizzling, sympathetic 2020 The Hot Wing King, directed here by Roy Alexander Weise.
Everett’s predicament becomes the heart of the play which, amid all the banter, basketball and food prep, opens out to consider Black masculinity and, above all, fatherhood. Dwayne can offer a stability to Everett that the boy’s father can’t manage, but his reasons are messy and complex. Cordell, meanwhile, racked with guilt about leaving his own family, is reluctant to act as father to another kid.
