Winner of the 2021 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, The Hot Wing King is a ghost-pepper-hot comedy about chosen family, queer love, and Black masculinity. The pressure is on as Memphis’s annual “Hot Wang Festival” approaches, but Cordell Crutchfield is determined to claim his crown as king of the wings. With support from The New Wing Order, made up of his partner Dwayne and his friends Isom and Big Charles, Cordell preps his signature sauce while the men throw shade and occasionally burst into spontaneous Luther Vandross singalongs. But when an unexpected family tragedy brings Dwayne’s teenage nephew to their doorstep, the crew suddenly begins to call their own relationships into question. At the risk of losing much more than a cooking competition, the men must quickly navigate their own path to the meaning of family.
