Dinner Theater

LeRoy Community Theater (LCT) presents the melodrama, “The Great Ice Cream Scheme – Or Robin Haskins to the Rescue,” written by Billy St. John and produced by special arrangement with Pioneer Drama Service, Denver, Colorado.

Everyone knows Pop Sicle’s Ice Cream Parlor serves the best ice cream in town. Thanks to a secret recipe known only to him, his sister, Nana Peel, and his adopted son, Robin Haskins, Pop has the competition covered. When that cold-hearted villain, I.C. Custard, decides to steal Pop’s recipe, things get a little sticky. Custard hires an accomplice, Parfait Deluxe, ex-chorus girl and a total klutz. Despite her shortcomings, Parfait is instructed to entice the recipe from Robin. But Robin has given his heart – and lips – to Marsha Mallow, the sweet young waitress Nana has just hired. (Their romance is enough to melt your heart!) Employees getting locked in the freezer, a stage-struck prop man, a scoop of madcap characters and a show-stopping fight all make The Great Ice Cream Scheme a delightfully flavorful show!

The LCT kitchen crew will serve a four-course meal during the Saturday and Sunday performances. The Friday show will include dessert only.

Tickets are $25 for the Saturday and Sunday performances or $12 for the Friday performance and will go on sale at Ed’s Floral & Gifts in February.
