In the crime thriller, chefs from around the world have gathered at Pickachick High School to take part in an international chicken cooking competition sponsored by Captain Curry, founder of the Chicken Hut restaurant chain.

The competition, which is to be televised on Let's Eat Network, descends into chaos when the favorite chef, Frank Fricassee, is found dead and his top-secret recipe goes missing.

Newspaper reporters Burgundy and Carla will work with the studio audience and students at the school to uncover evidence and uncover the motives of many suspects to identify the killer.

The studio audience will name the murderer, who may be a different person at each performance.
