‘Murder,’ mayhem come to Gonzales
“Murder at the Howard Johnson’s” will be presented as a dinner theater performance April 13-14 at the Crystal Theatre, with the meal catered by the Running M.
Mix a bit of mayhem, madness and murder at the Gonzales Crystal Theatre on Friday, April 13, and Saturday, April 14, with fabulous food around the corner at the Running M Bar and Grill, and what will you get?
You’ll get an incredible evening of fun and food brought to you by the Gonzales Crystal Theatre.
The Crystal is hosting the Lockhart Baker Gaslight players in the hilariously funny “Murder at the Howard Johnson’s,” and partnering with Gonzales’ newest eatery, Marlene Metlzer’s Running M Bar and Grill, to offer a special combo dinner and show ticket. The introductory price of only $22 for dinner and show, the announcement of the Running M’s bourbon bread as the Crystal’s choice of dessert and the funny script of “Murder at the Howard Johnson’s” is a winning combination. With only two dinner performances scheduled, patrons need to plan to get their tickets early for this one.
The visiting Lockhart Baker Gaslight drew rave reviews when the Crystal brought their performance of the radio performance “It’s A Wonderful Life” to Gonzales in December 2011. The Lockhart Gaslight players are an incredibly talented troupe with a real breadth of talent and dedication to the development of the arts in the rural area. They, along with the Crystal board of directors and the Shiner Gaslight Theatre, have joined forces to create a “killer collaboration” of small non-profit live theatres in the heart of south central Texas.
The trio has already collaborated to bring “It’s A Wonderful Life” to the Gonzales Crystal Theatre in December 2011, and in January, toured the Crystal’s production of Nunsense to sold-out crowds at the Shiner Gaslight. This traveling production of “Murder at the Howard Johnson’s” marks the third collaboration in a string of planning shared performances over the next year.
“Murder at the Howard Johnson’s,” and bread pudding and stuffed chicken breast at the Running M make for a great evening’s entertainment in Gonzales, brought to you by the Crystal Theatre, your non-profit community theatre since 1982.
