Murder Among the Mateys Performance Photos

Decided I'd go ahead and do a pic dump for all of you! If you missed this years dinner theater, then I have to say, you really missed a good one! However, there's always next year!!

Truly, this year was just phenomenal! Our actors were on top of things & doing a splendid job, the food was amazing, and ours servers kept everyone happy. There was much bribing going on to get information from the pirates and other sneaky characters and everyone had a marvelous time.

All Sold Out, folks!

Thank you to everyone who purchased tickets for our dinner theater! We are excited to say we are SOLD OUT both nights!! Thank you SO much for your participation in buying tickets, spreading the word, and being generally awesome. We appreciate our patrons very much!

If you missed your chance to get your tickets, don't worry! There will be another chance next year. =)

Congratulations to Our Servers!

In case you didn't know, those who want to participate in our dinner theater as servers still have to audition. Being involved as a server is much more than just bringing out plates of food and keeping everyone's water filled. No, they must also memorize the story line, look over the script MANY times to be comfortable with whats going on, AND be prepared to answer any questions our guests might have for them- IN CHARACTER! Yes, our servers have characters as well. With our first dinner theater last year, our servers weren't just folks being waitresses.... no, they were Castle Servants in Lord and Lady Taylor's magnificent mansion and they were serving guests who had arrived to help celebrate the upcoming wedding of Baron Bartholomew. In that case, then, they needed to become those servants. To transport themselves into their characters, just like the cast. So it is no easy task being a server!

Here's a shout out to those who made it past the auditions and who are looking forward to serving you when you come to 'The Salty Seadog Inn' for a jig with the pirates this time around!

Congratulations To Our Cast!

Cannot wait to see the amazing performance these actors will put on!! Congratulations everyone!

Ticket Sales will open on April 25th! Be sure to come back then and get your tickets early as there are limited seats. You really don't want to miss this! June 3rd and 4th @6:30. Circle your calendars.

Second Annual Dinner Theater auditions!

It's exciting that auditions for our 2nd Annual Dinner Theater are just around the corner! Thespians have already been gearing up with a skill building season (though not tied to the dinner theater itself or required to participate in order to audition).

The skill building has been a great time of learning for new and old thespians alike. You can never stop learning, right?

Once auditions have taken place, expect to see the ticket sales open shortly after. The seats are limited each night, so reserve yours quickly. You don't want to miss out on this exciting adventure! We'll reveal more about the plot at a later time, so be sure to keep your eyes open!

11th Season Here We Come!

We are getting ready to gear up for our 11th season! Woohoo!

This year/season is fairly significant as it is really changing up a few things for our drama group. Last year we did our dinner theater on Valentines day and, while it was fun, we realized we had to make a few changes this year.

Our new schedule that we are hoping to follow annually will be a dinner theater the first weekend in June, and then a regular stage performance the first weekend in November. By having some regularity to our performances, it's easier for people to remember those core details.

If you're interested in acting or helping out with our drama group, please contact us! We'd love to hear from you. Right now we're getting ready for our new season, so it's a perfect time to come check it out.

On Feb. 10th we will begin our 'skill building sessions'. If you want to learn more about acting and how to be successful at it, this is definitely for you. We will be focusing on helping to train our thespians in this art by giving better understanding about some acting basics and beyond.

If you'd like to come audition for the dinner theater, auditions will be held on March 23rd. This is not associated with our skill building, but we do recommend attending the skill building sessions as well. You can never stop learning, right?

If you're interested in either of these segments with ABC Drama or you just want to come help out with behind the scenes stuff, please contact us at abunchofcharactersdrama@gmail.com. We'll then be able to send you a full schedule of the season.

However, if you're interested in just coming and being part of our amazing audiences.... well, circle that first weekend in June for another magical evening out!

One Week Until Performances!!

We are all getting a little excited and a bit nervous... performances are right around the corner! We always say it's a good sign if you're nervous because it means you're going to be practicing extra hard at home! So it always is, too.

Our second to last practice was today... partial costumes on and missing a couple actors who were sick... we'd greatly appreciate prayer that they are all better by next week!

A few pictures to whet your appetite for the upcoming performances. You don't want to miss out!! Nov. 13th @ 7pm and 14th @ 3pm.
