Dinner Theatre on the beautiful historic island of Isle Madame is nothing new. The Acadiaville Community Center located in West Arichat had a very successful Lobster Dinner Theatre production which ran during the summer for a couple of years. The production which gave summer work to students of the area; giving these young artists a taste for the arts. I attended the productions both season and found them totally enjoyable and found the plays well written and performed. The acting by the young theatre group was amazing and the interaction between actors and their audience between acts as they served as waiters was great. These productions were a great promotional venue for island tourism and drew guite a number of visitors as well as locals to the center. The production left many of the patrons enthusiastic about returning to take in future productions. Unfortunately that production ceased a couple of years ago. It is nice to see a new production appear on the island and I am sure L'avenir d'Hortense et d'Aime' (Le Birthday Party á Judique) will be a great success. So make sure to purchase your ticket early and enjoy an evening of great entertainment and delicious food.
