If this were a movie it would be rated a solid R - for extreme sexual content and nudity…read more We lived in Midland 20 years ago and would come to Summer Mummers. We remembered it as a fun time with friends to throw popcorn and watch the show - to "boo" when the villain came out and cheer when the heroine arrived. Some of the humor was a little off color but mostly it was good adult fun. We were back in town so our Midland friends bought tickets for our group of 12 (She stayed up until midnight when the tickets went on sale because they can be hard to get for big groups). We got tickets on the floor (also called the house section). Welcome to a new era! The humor and jokes were absolutely vulgar. And they weren't funny. The first part of the night includes a combination video and on stage play with a clever story line. Overall this part was good fun but the jokes were disgusting. The videos before intermission included a woman flashing the audience. The Olio is the next part of the evening and includes dancers and singers and a few clever variety acts. We loved the old woman playing When The Saints Go Marching In. But again - the jokes were all sexually explicit and crude. And then the final act is the Mule Train which we all loved. This type of clever humor was what we hoped for the whole evening. Overall - We were disappointed in the vulgarity of the evening in contrast to the old SM. Our friends had planned to bring their adult family members in a few weeks but decided not to go and will try to sell their tickets. I would not want to sit next to my mother or children and watch this!! I also recognize that we may not be their target audience. We considered leaving at intermission but kept hoping it would get less offensive. But it didn't. What we did love were the people - all of the workers (who I think are mostly volunteers) were fun , helpful and very nice. We loved throwing popcorn. And the singalongs (who doesn't love singing Deep in the Heart of Texas). Here are some suggestions if you choose to go - Popcorn - This is the number one activity of the evening. Popcorn bags are one token. Each token is $5. Some people buy a bag of popcorn each. These are the people who don't want to throw popcorn or have popcorn thrown at them. The majority of the people buy LOTS of popcorn. We bought 4 bags of popcorn and that lasted through the first intermission. We bought many more throughout the evening. We had a fun popcorn war with the people behind us. At the end of the night they only sell large bags which are 4 tokens ($20). Some people would dump an entire bag on one person. We spent about $200 on popcorn. I would guess there was about 4" of popcorn in the floor at the end of the night. Tickets - If you can't get tickets on the house level or the pit I would say don't bother. You can't throw popcorn in the balcony and that's the best part of the evening. To buy the tickets in larger numbers you might need to be ready to buy them immediately when they go on sale. Clothing and Popcorn - You will come home with popcorn in your hair and pockets and just about everywhere! The oil from the popcorn sticks to your skin and hair. I wore tennis shoes and was glad. Might be hard to walk in the popcorn in sandals. Concessions - They serve beer, a few mixed drinks, margaritas (tasted like sugar water) and sangria (which was pretty good). The beer is one token and the mixed drinks were two tokens. You can also pay a token for a souvenir cup with a lid (highly suggest). Water cups are free. There is no food except for popcorn. Yucca Theater - Charming old theater but with that brings poor air conditioning (it was warm!) and congested areas around the bar and entry area. But the restrooms were pretty nice for an old theater.

Great piece of Midland's theatrical & performing arts history! It has a great atmosphere, with an…read more"Arabian Nights" decor to it. So antique & classic! I've been to a variety of different plays & events here. They have some areas where you can sit at a table for enjoying food &/or drink with your show, & they also have the regular theatre seats for smaller, shorter, matinee shows. Great location for the annual "Summer Mummers" in historic downtown Midland! It may just be a challenge finding a good & convenient location to park. I'm also not sure if the concession stand or bar is set up to accept any payment other than cash. But I've enjoyed coming here!

You also may be familiar with it if you work in oil and gas as the Bush Convention Center is located next to each other and hosts conferences. The park is clean and well-maintained with plenty of seating all around the park, a large grass area in the middle of it, and a pleasant sidewalk for walking and responding to emails (what you can normally find me doing). The vegetation could be maintained a bit better and the bathrooms are always "closed for cleaning". I am thankful to have this park where it is and will continue to use it going forward.

I've never been to the Caribbean and know nothing about their cuisine, but the flavors in absolutely everything on their menu are STELLAR!!! It's really the only place in Midland (that I've found so far) that has tasty, flavorful, high quality food. My go-to is the jerk chicken with rice and peas and plantains. Their jerk fettuccine pasta is also INSANE but pretty heavy. They're a good truck, so they're always on the move. Even if you think you know where they're located based on their Facebook status, always call just to make sure. I'd recommend this place to anyone with taste buds (so, basically anybody).

Lou needs a raise and a cooking show…read more I don't know who's running the kitchen, but Lou deserves a medal. The food was so good I forgot how to use manners for a second. Fork? Gone. I was one bite away from picking up the plate like a bowl of cereal. Lou came out to check on us, and I swear the man had the confidence of someone who knew he just changed lives. And he did. The flavor? Unreal. The service? Faster than my paycheck disappearing on payday. Lou, if you're reading this you're a legend. Everyone else, stop reading reviews and just go eat. Ask for Lou. Tell him I said thanks for making my taste buds believe in miracles again!!!
