JUNGLE RESTAURANT, a new play premiere at Caveat NYC!

The new comedic play JUNGLE RESTAURANT about nostalgia, environmentalism, and eating at a novelty restaurant under a time constraint will be presented by Caveat on October 5th, 2025. Jungle Restaurant is written by Sam Melton and Eliana Cohen-Orth, who also co-directs alongside director Eliyana Abraham. Jungle Restaurant is also produced by Eliyana Abraham in association with Caveat. Jungle Restaurant explores what it means to grow up during a climate crisis and the accompanying urge to return to a time that never truly existed. The play begins as Peggy chooses the perfect place for dinner — her band needs to grab some food before their gig, and what better place than Jungle Restaurant, the location of her favorite childhood memories. As the four band members (and one band member's dad) try to survive the jungle-themed hijinks, they must ponder returning to the primordial soup. Jungle Restaurant premieres at Caveat (21A Clinton Street, NYC) on October 5th, 2025 at 2:30pm.
