CLAREMONT — Off Broad Street Players are continuing their long-held tradition of producing entertaining dinner theater shows during the dreary months of winter. The group’s first show of 2019 will be “Dining with Disaster,” an original comedy by OBSP member Mike Cirre. He has penned wild and hilarious script about aging superheroes living together in a quirky senior care facility. Mirroring the style of the many successful dinner theater shows that have been produced by OBSP over the years, the show is a classic of adult humor for ages 18 and older.
Julie Richardson, director, has worked with her veteran cast of dinner theater actors, well-known to local audiences and expert at the improv and bawdy humor that has been so successful in past shows. Cast members are Trudee Bacon, Brian Bevacqua, Mike Cirre, Kara Lee, Scott Magnuson, Robin McNamara, Leslie Peabody, Bob Tourangeau and Jessica Warkentien.
Show dates are Friday and Saturday, Jan. 11 and 12, and two weeks later on Jan. 25 and 26. Tickets are $25, which includes dinner and the show. Cocktails will be sold at 6 p.m., with dinner and the show beginning at 6:30 p.m. Please plan to arrive at the Elks Lodge in Claremont in time to be seated before that time or you risk having to wait until the first intermission to enter the room.
Tickets must be purchased in advance at the Claremont Elks Lodge, 54 Summer Street. Call 603-542-9802 for their open hours. There are still some seats available for the opening weekend but they must be purchased earlier each day and not at the door. Tickets for the final weekend should be purchased by Wed. Jan. 23 so that enough dinners can be prepared.
