For those hoping to sip at the pure source oF Brownian wit and wisdom, this is a must-see extravaganza for the whole family. Brown said, "I've been cultivating material for this show for about a decade so it'll feel pretty darned good to finally get it out of my head and onto a stage. I feel we've come up with some pretty amazing food demos, and the multimedia segments are solid....but I do have to say I'm a bit nervous about the singing parts."
