Candlelight Music Dinner-Theatre

Candlelight Music Dinner-Theatre is located at Millers Road in Ardentown near Wilmington, Delaware and is approximately 17 miles from Philadelphia International Airport. Originally opened in the 1930s under the name of The Robin Hood Theatre, the place was transformed in 1969 to the first dinner theatre in Delaware. Now audiences can enjoy one of five different productions each year in this converted barn, with food and drink provided as part of the ticket price.

Performances are given every Friday, Saturday and Sunday as well as some Thursday evenings and Wednesday afternoons. Doors open at 6pm for evening performances when guests have their meal followed by the show at 8pm. For matinee showings on Sundays the doors open at 1pm with the show starting at 3pm. Shows performed here in the past have included Footloose, Cats and The Wizard of Oz.

The food is served buffet style with the menu changing a little from show to show. One of the interesting features of dining here is that the food is served by the staff of actors, stage managers and crew. There is also a full service cash bar available for each performance at the theatre.
