THE FOREIGNER: running NOW at Desiderio's Dinner Theatre through April 4th!

Director: Jay Desiderio
Trying to forget his marital problems, dull and doleful Charlie Baker takes a fishing lodge holiday in the Deep South, and to avoid being pestered by the locals pretends that he is a foreigner who speaks no English.

Director: Randy Kramer
Attend Stephen Sondheim and Hugh Wheeler’s dark, witty and Tony Award-winning tale of love, murder and revenge, featuring everyone’s favorite murderous couple, Sweeney Todd and Mrs. Lovett. This masterpiece is sure both to thrill and delight audiences.

Director: Curtis Lovell
Life is juicy and delicious until the world starts to fall apart. Hushpuppy and his friends must learn to care for each other while they battle the fearsome aurochs in this magical Southern fantasia that inspired the movie Beasts of the Southern Wild.

Director: Doug Weyand
When a distant heir to a family fortune sets out to speed up the line of succession by using a great deal of charm and a dash of murder, uproarious hilarity ensues. A sold-out hit at MusicalFare in 2022, two weeks of the run were lost due to COVID outbreaks. Now everyone can see it this time!

Director: Randall Kramer
The inspiring true story of 7,000 stranded airline passengers on 9/11 and the small town in Canada that welcomed them. Cultures clashed and nerves ran high, but uneasiness turned into trust and gratitude grew into enduring friendships. An uplifting example of the very best of human nature!
