Dine out, do good: Theater edition

The Storefront Theatre of Waxhaw will benefit from an Aug. 3 fundraiser called "Delicious!" Chef Jason Ziobrowski (Jay-Z, see?) will do a tasting menu, and will be using artisan grains, rices and legumes (he's Eastern Region corporate chef for InHarvest, which specializes in those). There'll also be a "Chopped"-style cooking challenge, and guests will bid on two opportunities: To serve as a sous chef in the challenge, or to get to choose (from a group of designated items) what ingredient the chef will need to incorporate in the challenge.

The theater company, which hopes to gain seed money for a facility, will announce its upcoming season at the event.

Tickets: $75 (limited to 50); www.thestorefronttheatre.org.
