The Westcott Theater in Syracuse will transform into a late‑night hub of music and flavor this Friday, May 9th, as it unveils Fat Boy Pizza Co., a one‑night‑only pop‑up shop serving fresh, homemade Roman‑style pizza from open to close. Doors swing wide at 9:30 PM, and at 10:00 PM the house lights will dim as an exclusive supergroup—The Pizza Connection—takes the stage. Featuring Marc Brownstein of The Disco Biscuits, Mike Gantzer of Aqueous, Ben Atkind of ElephantProof, and Big Shrimp’s own Jared Sage Cowen and Daniel Cohen, this all‑star lineup promises an improvisational set unlike any other in Central New York.
Before the band plugs in, DJBrownie will spin an electrifying opening set, mixing familiar grooves with unexpected twists to set the perfect tone for a night of communal celebration. As the music weaves through the theater’s intimate floor, Fat Boy Pizza Co. will be firing pie after pie, offering attendees the chance to indulge in authentic Roman‑style slices baked to order. For fans who expect nothing less than total satisfaction, the $30 Pizza Pass delivers unlimited slices throughout the evening, pairing perfectly with the free‑flowing jams onstage.
