Willow Rosenberg (she/her) invites you into her kitchen and bakes you cookies while sharing stories centred around some of her favourite recipes. You will feel like you are truly just spending time in your friend’s kitchen as Willow discusses her queerness, Judaism, ADHD, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome & chronic pain, and relationship with her mum, of blessed memory. Always bringing it back to her lifelong passion for baking.

Whether you have a favourite spatula, bake once or twice a year, live in constant fear of being told to “just fold it in”, or simply want to know what a Jewish Vagina Cookie(tm) is, this 2025 Jenny Award winning one-woman show about love, life, tradition (but make it gay), and the joys of home baking is for you!
You should definitely come see this show if you:
– have fond memories of listening to stories over a cup of tea while the smell of freshly baked cookies fills the room (or want some new ones – cookies or memories);
– are interested in connecting with tradition and traditional work through a queer, disabled, transformative lens;
– have a sense of humour so heavily informed by meme culture, especially tumblr meme culture, that you saw the graphics for this show and connected to it on a deep spiritual level usually reserved for the latest coffee shop AU, enemies to lovers, f*ck canon, 150k words fanfic starring your favourite (gay, obvs) ship that you just found on AO3 and read in one go because who needs sleep anyways? (no, you can’t have Willow’s AO3 handle, soz)
