This is a review of the November 29, 2024, performance of The Producers at the Delray Playhouse. EXCELLENT! This was a performance that I'll happily remember the rest of my life. The four of us, two couples, have season tickets. At the intermission, we all talked about how great every performer was. Great casting, directing, acting, singing, dancing, and audio. Not one weak actor in this troupe. The other husband said that he saw The Producers on Broadway, and he thought the Delray Playhouse performance was better. The other wife said that this single play was worth the price of the season tickets. My wife loved it, and for the first time in a long time, I was so thoroughly entertained that I felt the intermission came too soon. Don't miss out on seeing this production... if you can get tickets!

Instead, tonight's performance felt more like a rehearsal. Definitely not worth my...
Read moreLocal community theater in Lake Ida area with a wide variety of live stage performances from theater to musical. The Delray Playhouse has been here since the 1940's. For the last three years we have been buying their annual theater subscription which includes five scheduled shows. It's been about $200 for both of us to see 5 shows each year and it's something we look forward to. The theater is professionally run and intimate. It's great to support the arts and to have such nice entertainment in Delray Beach. This theater has expanded its offerings to include more musical programs and even a children's theater and summer camp. This theater is not fancy but it's comfortable and clean. We've enjoyed ourselves and have started inviting friends to join us. We wish Delray Beach Playhouse many more...
