If you've watched the Food Network, you know Alton Brown. As the host of the award winning Good Eats and host of Iron Chef America, he is recognized as an authority of all things food.
In November, Alton Brown will be visiting the he Sandler Center for the Performing Arts in Virginia Beach, VA on his tour The Edible Inevitable. The audience can expect to hear Brown discuss Good Eats and the other shows he’s been a part of over the years. There will also be puppets, cooking demonstrations, and even sing-a-longs. The family friendly act is part interactive too; people in attendance have a chance to be asked to participate during certain segments of the show. Even if you aren't asked to jump on stage there are rumors of a “poncho zone” for those close enough to the stage.
