Uncle Phil's Diner: Interactive Dinner Theatre for Outreach

For permission to perform Uncle Phil’s Diner you are required to purchase the Production Pack.  In addition to including 15 scripts at a reduced rate for the director and major characters, you receive permission to make photocopies of the script for minor characters and your technical crew.  This Pack also includes templates and samples for creating promotional posters, flyers, audience response cards, and sheet music for the ’Nerd Love Song.’ The included Performance Licensing Agreement is used to pay the Royalty fee(s) and is due two weeks prior to performance(s).  The Production Pack price does not include the Royalty payment.  A search for a theatrical outreach event that is fun,fast-paced, and not preachy should end with the selection of UNCLE PHIL’S DINER.  Set in a 1950’s diner, the plot centers around Uncle Phil and his wait staff as they eagerly anticipate the arrival of the evening’s entertainment--a band called The Desotos.  As it becomes increasingly apparent that the Desotos may never show up, the waiters & D.J. attempt to keep the audience entertained.

Children love puppets! Puppets provide an easy way to help children learn and remember Bible stories. Doug Smee has done a fantastic job of writing the 14 bible story scripts included in this book. The scripts are fast and to the point but also a delight to watch. 0ne feature of this book is a chapter entitled ’Jonah’ which tells the story of Jonah and the whale. The puppets in these scripts take on a personality to tell favorite stories from the Bible. At the beginning of each script is a small devotional for puppeteers to share with the audience before or after the show.
