Dinner Theater Saturday to Benifit Gulf Coast

I love it when Theater is combined with a deeper purpose. You can read about my previous thoughts on the subject of local socially conscientious theater here.

The Red Hook United Methodist Church is presenting a Dinner Theater Murder Mystery Comedy this Saturday, August 9, 2008 at 6:00 PM. Dinner will be catered by Max's Memphis BBQ (yum). There will be prizes for solving the mystery as well as a Chinese Auction.

This is to benefit the UMCOR disaster relief mission to Biloxi, Mississippi scheduled for this September 19-27. As many of you know, the Gulf is still recovering from the after effects of Hurricane Katrina. This is the third trip that the volunteers from Red Hook have made to Biloxi.

The Red Hook United Methodist Church is located at 4 Church Street, Corner of Rt 199, Red Hook, NY.

Tickets are $30 and include the show as well as the BBQ Buffet, not to mention supporting a worthy cause. For advance tickets you can call Jude 845-876-6657 or Lois 845-758-1714.

If you are interested in Volunteering and joining the mission team they could use plumbers, carpenters, electricians, painters, and anyone who can swing a hammer and be a good listener. You can contact the team leader Deborah Lamb at 845-876-1213.
