McSweeney Dinner Theatre

I took in a local dinner theatre production called "The House on Magnetic Hill". Magnetic Hill is an actual tourist attraction here --cars can travel in reverse, uphill, due to a mysterious power.

The stage:


Last night's production was filled with acting, music, comedy, and interaction with audience members. I have never laughed so hard in all my life. The actors were not only your waiter or waitress, but they also played instruments in the band, sang, danced and stayed in character throughout the night.

The cast, onstage and jamming:


The story was a murder mystery, interlaced with songs from Ozzy Ozborne, Heart, Michael Jackson, Meatloaf, the Beatles and more.

Bass and guitar:


The show included a 4 course meal. I highly recommend supporting your local acting/ theatre troupe today. Sometimes the best productions are right in your own backyard!

The main course: Diners could choose between steak, fish or chicken
