Press Release
 

The Fried Chicken Theory According to Jackie Gordon, 2001


Jackie Gordon Biography

Jackie Gordon is an "eatertainer" - one who entertains using a combination of food, music and laughter. Jackie's Russian-Italian-Jewish-Jamaican roots are studded with fantastic cooks. A native New Yorker, she grew up eating her way through the melting pot, working for restaurants, catering, food consulting and traveling the world over in pursuit of fine foods.

After studying voice in New York, she moved to Australia's foodie capital, Melbourne. There she successfully pursued her singing career and opened the first bookshop café.

Forever trying to bridge her culinary and musical interests, Jackie devised the idea of recreating the dinner show. She thought if she could make the food not only as good as the entertainment, but an integral part of the show, the audience would devour it. Her first "eatertainment" show, "The Fried Chicken Theory According To Jackie Gordon", debuted in Australia, in 1999. It was a hit and created a demand for corporate, private and festival productions as well as more public shows of this nature and scale. She is continually developing innovative ways to appreciate food and music together

After years of overseas success with sold-out shows, festival performances and happy private and corporate clients like Bolle, BMW, the Macquarie Bank, etc., Jackie Gordon and Divalicious Inc. are now based in New York.

Jackie's first Divalicious Eatertainment show, sayCHEESE!: a tongue-titillating tasting of artisanal cheeses, wines and songs they inspire, a joint venture with Chef Terrance Brennan and the Artisanal Cheese Center, opens April 28th, 2004, in New York at the West Bank Cafe's Laurie Beechman theater.
