Just saw Mel Brooks "the Producers". First was the dinner. It has been a long time that we were somewhere that our server was also in the play and seemed so genuinely glad we were there. Food was surprisingly good. Served hot and well cooked for all of the offerings. Service was fun every time someone came to the table. Oh by the way there is an excellent bar with a bar tender that certainly has earned his stripes. Now the Show. This has always been one of my favorites, a go to for on demand. Being in this theatre, watching these talented actors made the time go by so fast we wanted more. I found myself leaning in to the dancing and singing and it was spectacular. The sets, the props, the costumes, the lighting, the sound, and being able to just plain enjoy made the night. They have special one night performances as well. These show are such a fantastic value. By the way seating is one of the things I really liked. We were seated with 4 other people that we left as our new friends.

You can look up the menu on their website before you come. Started off with a salad and shrimp cocktail. Then the main meal has several entrees. You can get all of them or tell your waiter what you don't want on your plate if you know you dont like something or to keep it lighter. Follow that with a dessert or 2, coffee and tea. All included. During intermission, they did a 50/50 raffle. The show was good, and the performers all had such good vocals. It must be popular. They told us most upcoming shows are sold out. I would return.

    Last night's performance of "Grandiloquent" by GARY GULMAN at the The Grand Opera House was…read moreintelligent, deeply human, and masterfully crafted, the show draws heavily from his book "Misfit"--and brings its spirit to life on stage. Gulman is like a modern-day Scheherazade, spinning stories that hold the audience spellbound. He pulls you in so completely--you're laughing one moment, moved the next, and before you know it, the show has ended and you're left wanting more. His narratives are intricately interwoven with a mix of obscure and familiar references that reward attentive listeners. Gulman manages to be hilarious, self-deprecating, vulnerable, and razor-sharp all at once. Beneath the humor, you always sense his compassion and commitment to social and economic justice. My only reservation was a small but noticeable shift in tone: he used the F-word a handful of times. What makes Gulman so distinctive is that his comedy has always been brilliantly intelligent and genuinely funny - without relying on cursing. It felt slightly out of step with his otherwise clean style. That said, it did little to diminish what was, overall, a truly memorable and deeply affecting evening. Strongly recommend the show! A brief note for the venue itself: it might be worth considering a slightly delayed start--just a few minutes past the stated time--to allow late arrivals to settle, followed by closing the doors once the performance begins. The steady trickle of people finding their seats was distracting not only for the audience but undoubtedly for the performer as well. Additionally, a clear, firm announcement at the outset about refraining from cellphone use would go a long way. During the show, a guest in the front row was scrolling on her phone, and the glow and movement were quite disruptive to those nearby--one can only imagine how noticeable it must be from the stage. Small adjustments like these would help preserve the immersive, attentive atmosphere that a performance of Gulman's caliber truly deserves. Beautiful venue, comfortable seats, great acoustics and ambiance. Very affordable tix. The view from Orchestra, Row D, Seat 6 was OUTSTANDING!

It's pretty incredible that most of these people have full time jobs and dedicate a summer to this. They do an awesome job with sets, costumes, and singing! It's cute how excited kids get and they often have a meet and greet with the actors after the show. Pro tip: wait till the week of and check the weather before you buy tickets because if the show is rained out you can't get a refund and they might not decide until a half hour after the show, after delaying it several times (this happened last year) and you might not be able to make the rain date. Also, bring bug spray and a sweater, it can get chilly.

I went with a friend, and was impressed with the show itself (more fun and hip that I'd assumed) and the performance of the very large cast. The whole show was good; some of the individual peformaces were outstanding. Some tips: You can get dinner ahead of time in the Longwood Gardens cafeteria-style restaurant, about a two-minute walk. The restaurant has indoor and outdoor seating, and outdoor jazz on Thursday evenings. Your theater ticket also gets you admission to the entire Longwood Gardens, if you want to arrive a few hours early and stroll around. The show is outdoors, so bring bug spray. Stick around for the fountain and lights show, starting about 10 minutes after the show ends.

    Amazed to find that the DSO hasn't shown up on Yelp yet - one of the hidden gems of the Delaware…read moreArts Community. Having had various professional affiliations with this organization over the past ten years or so, I've seen this orchestra experience remarkable growth in recent years, due in large part to the energetic and artistic leadership of conductor David Amado. I suspect most people don't even know the DSO had a national release (Telarc, I think!) recording last year with the Los Angeles Guitar Quartet. (Which was nominated for a Grammy!) They're that good! The DSO has been progressive in their programming with a nice mix of the standards, and a few out of the box productions like the orchestral scores to the Bugs Bunny cartoons - performed live WITH the films. But most importantly, the orchestra is composed of first rate musicians, performing in the historic, beautiful (though admittedly - a bit dry) hall that IS the Grand Opera House. (Worth going to a concert just to catch a glimpse of Wilmington, circa 1900!) As one who has become increasingly passionate about supporting local enterprise, be that the nearby, sustainable farms or family owned fine dining establishments, I hope more Delawareans will come to realize that they have this fine orchestra right here in town. These are difficult times for orchestras all over the country - hoping this one continues to thrive!
