Another idea for the weekend that doesn’t include sports or going to the fair …
Lakewood resident Leah Shafer, a former dating and humor columnist for Quick and a former writer for the Observer, stars in a mysterious, murderous, skullduggery filled dinner theater performance, “The Haunting of Deep Ellum”, which opens this weekend in Deep Ellum at the Boiler Room, 2723 Elm. For under $50 ($49.95), dinner and interactive comedy featuring the hilarious Comedy Killers cast are all yours.
Let’s get this out of the way: The food includes a choice of New York strip cooked with garlic mashed potatoes, green beans, salad, dessert OR blackened tilapia with rice, mixed veggies, salad, dessert. Non‐alcoholic drinks are included and a full‐service cash bar is also available. Hint: Discounts are available on the Dallas Hub Theater Facebook page or Comedy Killers’ website.
As for the show, I’ve never seen Comedy Killers in action, but I have been to this type of thing — I normally initially avoid interactive entertainment (too lazy, don’t enjoy talking to strangers) but, never fail, when I wind up at a good improv, dinner theater or a show that requires audience participation, I leave feeling totally energized and completely spent from laughing so hard.
