The Hot Wing King Tickets

Indulge in a fiery feast of friendship and flavor.
Three men in matching flame-patterned shirts are cooking in a kitchen. One man is stirring a pot, another is looking over his shoulder, and the third, wearing a paper crown, is smiling at the camera.
Two men stand in a bedroom. One, wearing a white t-shirt, gestures with his hand while speaking. The other, in a gray tank top and shorts, listens attentively. Greek letters ΑΦΑ and decor are visible in the background.

Two people embrace and smile at each other, one wearing an apron and the other a floral shirt with an apron. They are standing outside near a brick structure and wooden fence.

About The Hot Wing King

The Hot Wing King follows a group of Black queer male friends as they prep their secret recipe for the annual Hot Wing Festival in Memphis, Tennessee. Bawdy jokes and banter fly freely and matters of love and loyalty simmer alongside the sauce.

When it comes to wings, Cordell is king! Supported by his beau Dwayne and the best friends who serve as his fry crew, the group embarks on a fun night of pre-competition prep for Memphis’s Annual hot wing festival. But when Dwayne’s troubled nephew unexpectedly needs a place to stay, it quickly becomes a recipe for disaster. Winner of the 2021 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, The Hot Wing King is a fierce comedy about the risks and rewards of celebrating who you are.
