Poke Sallet Sally Dinner Theater

Poke Sallet Sally Dinner Theater
Join us for a playful performance event that includes dinner while unpacking the story about the pokeweed plant.
In Poke Sallet Sally, actor, playwright and chef Jerri X dispells myths about this native plant (Phytolacca americana) through stories that show how people used pokeweed for medicine and nourishment.
The event is co-presented by St Louis-based Lynn Peemoeller, a food systems planner, researcher and teacher. Lynn’s practice blends food, identity, place, and policy in participatory, community-centred ways.
This is a free event, with a limit of 50 guests. Reservations are required.
