The Lamplighters Community Theatre — Attraction in La Mesa

I've been to a couple of plays here now (Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None and Gods of Carnage) and I love this little theater. Both plays I was skeptical how they would be since this is a little community theater. Yet both times I left thoroughly entertained and wanting to come back again soon.

I am from out of state and have attended the Lamplighters Community Theater on 3 occasions. Loved it every time.

I now have a new love for theater and Highly recommend Lamplighters...
