My family & I visited the dinner Derby theater this weekend. We purchased tickets for the Games Afoot murder mystery comedy. However, there should have been a rating somewhere in the play description. There were numerous episodes where curse words were blurted out, some with great emphasis. A lot of talk about who slept with who, and lastly a "seance". At that point we quietly exited the show, following several other families that had chose to leave earlier. The food was good, theater was nice & clean, our server was excellent. I wouldn't have chose this show if I had known the content prior to purchasing the tickets.

Derby dinner offers an enjoyable evening of food and entertainment. I suggest your first trip to DDP be a comedy play. Everyone loves to laugh. Taken numerous friends to DDP always comedy first and they all want to go back. The food is above average for buffet food. Enjoy tables on left side of theatre best, but all seats are good.

We recently attended a Saturday night Derby Dinner production of "The Games Afoot". The setting is always intimate, and the productions always entertaining. Our party of four sat at a table for six and we were joined by a nice couple shortly before the start of the performance. If you don't like dining/sitting with strangers, they have tables for 2., 4 and 6, but those are based on date and performance time. the longer you wait, the more limited your seating arrangement becomes. The food was very good, as usual. The menu changes with each production. The carved turkey was moist and delicious. The pasta alfredo had a nice flavoring. Even the fish was good, and I'm not a fish person. The salad bar and vegetables were a fine compliment to the entrees. The meal comes with Tea, Water, and Coffee at no charge. . Desserts and soft drinks are extra, but well worth the cost. At least the Brownie Surpreme which I highly recommend as the perfect compliment to a very nice evening outYou can check out show times, ticket prices and menus at derbydinner.com. Highly recommend!

We celebrated our First Lady's Anniversary today at Derby Dinner Playhouse in Clarksville, IN. The play was "A Mighty Fortress is Our Church Basement" and it was excellent! The play was entertaining and funny. The actors were talented. Each one was a great vocalist so i enjoyed every song...plus the sound system there is awesome, so you hear everything even when they whisper. They even incorporated the name of the groups that were visiting into the play so that was special. The food was great as well. There was a selection of meats - fish, baked chicken, barbecue chicken, country ham, as well as mashed potatoes, green beans, sweet potato casserole, etc. The salad bar was ample to make your own and included one of my favorites - broccoli salad. If you arrive early, don't fear...there are lounges, the gift shop and a large lobby for you to hang around in. Their bathrooms are very clean and there are plenty of stalls ladies. We paid $33 for a matinee ticket and it was very worth it. Just so you know, they do sell "adult" beverages at this location and you do pay for your dessert if you want one - they range from small sundaes (ice cream with a choice of topping) for $3 to a full size brownie monstrosity for $5.75. I had the cheesecake with strawberry topping ($5.50) and yeah...I'd totally do it again! For our play there were 2 acts and our table saved dessert for the second act...great choice. I'm thinking of doing a birthday party there....that's how much I enjoyed it. http://derbydinner.com/shows/mighty-fortress-basement/

We are season ticket holders at DDP. The third installment of the Church Basement Ladies was exceptionally funny, as my jaws still hurt from smiling and laughing. The small cast carried the show without a hitch. Tina Jo Wallace is talented with physical comedy as well as verbal. Rita Thomas is convincing at a stuffy matron who takes a nip. Cary Wiger has the role of pastor down pat. Seated in the round, the show played to a full house. Clever to include the visiting groups into the opening scene as church visitors. No more spoilers! The buffet was very busy and the second line should have been left open longer to accommodate the large crowd. The line was the longest I have ever seen for the hot food which ran out too quickly - they had a hard time keeping it full. The fried chicken was nearly gone when I came thru', but it was too busy to wait for more & hold up the line. The sweet potato casserole was overbaked with little taste, but the spinach casserole was so good! Don't be deterred. The food is usually very tasty.The fried chicken and fish were very good as usual. I love the breaded tomatoes & wish I had their recipe! The salad bar is very fresh with a nice variety. We will be back again on Nov 9.

Playing through November 16, The Game's Afoot will be sure to get everyone in the mood for the Halloween season, with chills and thrills around every corner!A Broadway star, who is best known for his successful role of Sherlock Holmes, invites his supporting cast to his castle for the weekend, while he is recuperating from a gunshot wound. While no one quite knows what to expect, they definitely don't plan on murder. Equal parts comedy and thriller, be prepared to spend an evening packed full of adventure! This plot has so many turns and twists that the audience is constantly kept guessing. And just when you think that you may have it all figured out, expect even more surprises! The casting of this production is absolutely brilliant! Brian Bowman is a clever William Gillette, the famous star known for his portrayal of Sherlock Holmes, and his mother Martha (Rita Thomas) is spectacular in her role of his doting protector, who has a few tricks up her sleeve. Tina Jo Wallace as Madge completely chills the audience during a seance scene, with guests literally jumping out of their seats. And David Myers as Felix, Gillette's co-star and best friend, truly leaves the crowd breathless with laughter as he attempts to "dispose" of the victim. Joey Banigan and Zachary Burrell are brand new to the Derby Dinner Playhouse stage, and are completely intriguing as newly-weds, Simon and Aggie. And Janet Essenpreis as Daria Chase, and Elizabeth Loos as Inspector Goring are beyond fantastic, both literally filling the room with their powerful scenes and riotous exploits.The Derby Dinner Playhouse is located right in Clarksville, Indiana... just over the bridge from Louisville, Kentucky. It is a theater in the round, and has been in operation since 1974, making it one of the oldest and largest continuously operating theatres in the country!You will receive a top notch production for your ticket price, plus a mouth-watering meal, served buffet style, boasting delicious favorites like fried chicken, mouth-watering pasta selections, and a meat carving station. Some of the best desserts around are also offered, like the peanut butter pie or the brownie sundae!And make sure to be there early for the Footnotes, Derby Dinner Playhouse's very own musical spectacular, singing sneak peaks from upcoming shows, or additional selections connected to the night's main attraction. They are refreshing, delightful, and a great kick off to the evening's festivities!

We drove from Maryland to Kentucky to see the show with friends & it was well worth the trip. This is the second time we've been & we'll definitely be back. The theater is beautifully decorated. The stage is in an intimate setting & you feel drawn in to the performance. The entertainers are absolutely first rate! The pleasant surprise of the experience is the food. It is the best buffet food we've ever had & rivals many restaurants for quality, freshness, & taste. The entertainers are the servers, so you get to interact with them before the show, during intermission, & after the performance. A must-do if you're in the area (or worth traveling for)!

As season-ticket holders, this is our get-away theatre experience and we love it every time. The talent and the plays they secure are always top notch and very professional. The food is okay but keeps improving. It's the whole experience that makes it so fun. Be sure to order a great dessert which is given to you at intermission. The servers are the best and you will love the experience over and over.

We saw "A Mighty Fortress is Our Basement." We love the basement ladies series and anxious for the next one to come out. The food was very good. The desserts were extra, and they were great too. Great service and fun entertainment.

I love Derby Dinner! My family and I used to go here all the time but I'm sad to say that I don't get to visit very often now that I've moved. Our favorite memories here were going to all the different children's Christmas shows. The prices are reasonable and the shows are always well done.
