Theater production of "The Music Man" by local group "Ace in the Hole Players" to be held in Sheridan, serving dinner during the performance.
The Ace in the Hole Players, a community theater group in Sheridan, Wyoming, are set to revive the dinner theater experience with their upcoming production of the classic musical The Music Man.
Founded by Erin Kranz-Linden and Jay Arcarese, the Ace in the Hole Players have been actively promoting community theater since their inception. Their first production, Trouble in the Bighorns, a western melodrama, marked the beginning of their mission to bring high-quality, engaging theatrical experiences to the community while incorporating dinner service to enhance the event.
The Music Man, a Broadway musical, tells the story of a charming con man attempting to swindle the citizens of River City. This production will open on Aug. 7 and run through Aug. 10 at the Kalif Shrine, continuing the Ace in the Hole Players' partnership with the venue.
Kranz-Linden and Arcarese have invested significantly to secure the rights to produce The Music Man. For them, this show is more than just a production; it's a personal favourite of Kranz-Linden's.

Dinner theaters were once common but have faded from the American stage due to rising overhead costs. However, the Ace in the Hole Players are working to change that in Sheridan, introducing the city's newest theater troupe and bringing back the dinner theater experience.
