Before Anthony Bourdain became a bestselling author, celebrated chef, and fearless world traveler, one pivotal summer in Provincetown changed the course of his life. 

Neighbor to Neighbor and Dogwood Books are excited to present TODD TALKS TONY — a behind-the-scenes conversation with Greenwich native Todd Bartels, co-writer of the new film TONY. Inspired by Bourdain’s bestselling memoir Kitchen Confidential, the film explores the experiences that launched his remarkable career and helped shape the candid, curious, boundary-pushing voice the world came to love.

Todd will share how he followed in Bourdain’s footsteps in Provincetown, what it took to get the script greenlit, how the film came together, and behind-the-scenes stories from Hollywood.

In a fun twist, Todd will be interviewed by his mom, acclaimed stand-up comedian Jane Condon. Expect a lively, funny, and wonderfully candid conversation worthy of Bourdain himself. 🎤

📅 Friday, November 20 | 6:00 pm
📍 Christ Church Greenwich, 254 East Putnam Ave, Greenwich, CT
🎟️ $35 — includes a paperback copy of Kitchen Confidential + a reception with wine, refreshments, and charcuterie; proceeds benefit Neighbor to Neighbor.
