Dessert Theater

Welcome to Kitsap Unitarian Universalist Fellowship’s Dessert Theater page.

We recently staged a dessert theater production fun(d) raiser and think you may be interested in developing your own production.

With dessert theater you watch the first act of a play, enjoy dessert and company during the intermission, and then watch the second act.

There are several advantages to dessert theater vs. dinner theater. Production is easier and can be done off-site. Desserts can be served in a different room from the play. Desserts can be eaten standing. Clean-up is quicker. There is less distraction for the actors. A choice of desserts is easier to arrange than a choice of dinners. It is more inclusive than a higher priced dinner.

We successfully produced a play written by one of our members. The play was written for dessert theater. The script is easy to memorize and the set is simple. We encourage you to consider this play for your dessert theater production.

The Duck Hunt (PG13) takes place in a duck blind, somewhere in the Mid West, sometime towards the end of the last century.

In the first act three men spend a cold day in a duck blind philosophizing, joking, and hoping to shoot ducks.

In the second act their female partners spend a much warmer day in the same blind, sharing, joking, and hoping not to shoot any ducks.

If you think you might be interested in the play this is how it works –

Contact the author (email: asearle[at]wavecable.com) and he will email you free copies of the play.

If you choose to go ahead and produce the play we will send you further information.

The royalty fee is $10 per run of the play, and 25 cents per member of the audience attending the play.

All proceeds go to Kitsap Unitarian Universalist Fellowship.
