Rainbow Dinner Theatre
“Have I Got a Girl For You”
February 10
Cerwin asked me what I wanted to do for my birthday. I said, “Take our children out for a meal.”
Then, through someone’s Facebook post, I was reminded of how much I enjoy a good dinner theater, and checked the local ones. I thought the play at Rainbow Dinner Theatre looked like something we might enjoy – plus there was an afternoon matinee.
Our Pennsylvania children: Roy, Deb, Kristen, Jere, Chris, and Jeff – plus Cerwin and me.
We enjoyed a delicious buffet while the grandchildren had pizza at our place.
The stage.
The play was a delightful, funny story about a married sister and her husband (who thought they were perfect) setting up a rather chubby sister with a guy who was a bit frumpy.
It was good to spend an afternoon laughing, and reminded me of Proverbs 17:22. “A merry heart does good, like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones.”
We understand that Daniel and Rachel are an actual husband and wife. They were the “perfect” couple who set up the other two with a blind date.
Dianne was in every scene and did an amazing job with her “Edith-Bunker-style” character. Scott was superb at playing an awkward, romantic bachelor.
It was one of the best plays I have seen in a long time – a wonderful birthday present from Cerwin.
