Just got back from t he performance/dinner theater/ concert called Uncle Phil's Diner at Savage United Methodist Church. What a great time I had!. It's not a play exactly; it's more an audience participation event.
The premise is that it is 1957; the local high school is unusable for the Homecoming dance since the boy's toilets were cherry bombed, and so the event is being held at Uncle Phil's Diner, " Where the Food Is Fresh And the Staff is Too!"
Actors playing the part of the football hero, mathletes, other students, teachers, the principal and Phil's Diner staff interact with each other and with the audience.
The "waitresses" served us a nice turkey dinner and dessert; the principal tried to find out who the potty culprits were while the Homecoming activities proceeded apace.
The live band, the Dishwops, (Casimir Funk) hail from Hammond high and are absolutely terrific. Their renditions of Johnny B Good, and Jailhouse Rock had the crowd on it's feet and dancing up a storm in the Fellowship Hall.
Mayhem aplenty, a wonderful dessert, revelations about the Diner and the potty culprits, as well as the coronation of Homecoming royalty filled the rest of the evening. A great time had by all.
