Something to celebrate!
Some wacky nuns have taken over the stage at Roger Rocka’s Dinner Theater.  Good Company Players’ production of Nunsense filled the theater with laughter and song in its opening week and now the Sisters are well warmed up to begin week number two tonight.  We hope you’ll join us soon for an evening of good food and good fun.

Protocols for safety!

Proof of vaccination or negative test is required for entry, masks are needed when not at your table, and a lot of our tables are out of service so we can maintain social distancing.  Family and friends can sit together but strangers are separated by at least 6 feet.  Our staff is vaccinated and masked as well.  We’re not yet sure exactly how things will change when California opens up in mid July but our bottom line is having a safe environment for both guests and staff.

Using your 2020 tickets!

2020 season tickets will be honored for any shows you wish to see through 2022.  If you want to see Nunsense, Daddy Long Legs, The Addams Familyor Elf, the Musical this year, the thing to do is to call the box office and make your reservations as soon as possible.  (559) 266-9494.  The box office has your ticket information so they can reserve the shows you want and save any unused tickets for future use.  Reserving early offers better date and table selection, especially if our capacity continues to be limited.  The same procedure should be followed by holders of tickets to any canceled 2020 shows.

Love Letters at 2nd Space!

Love Letters will open June 2 at Good Company Players’ 2nd Space Theatre.  Love Letters shows us how far love can reach and how precious to have one person in our lives with whom we can share everything. Rated PG-13.

Road construction on Olive Avenue

If you normally come to Roger Rocka’s Dinner Theater by driving on Olive Avenue from the west, you’ll have to plan a different route for a couple of months.  Olive is completely blocked by road construction between Palm and Wishon avenues.  Wishon itself is open and Olive is clear to the east.

Nunsense opens!

It’s finally here!
It’s opening week for the first musical on our stage since March 2020 and the pandemic shutdown.  Good Company Players’ spirited production of Nunsense opened Thursday night.  Nunsense will continue dishing out the music and merriment through July 11.

they have raised the human spirit!”

Nunsense will be followed on our stage by Daddy Long Legs in mid July, The Addams Family in mid September and Elf, the Musical in mid November.  You can nail down your table for any three of this year’s four shows with a 3-Play Mini-Season.  Or double the fun with a Combo Mini and add 3 shows at GCP’s 2nd Space.
Make your choices and secure your season at this link.
There are specific state health department requirements for theaters because of COVID-19.  In order to be admitted, everyone must show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test within 72 hours.  That’s a requirement for our staff and cast as well.  You can request that family and friends be seated together when you make your reservation.
Capacity is limited so many tables are out of service.  And, while the situation is changing, masks are still required when not eating and drinking.  All meals are served at your table. There will be no buffets for the foreseeable future.  You’ll find the Nunsense menu on our website.  The Catch of the Day for opening week will be Swordfish.

Welcome Back!

Nunsense is raring to go!
This will be the final weekend for In the Meantime at Roger Rocka’s Dinner Theater.  Good Company Players is rehearsed and ready for the opening of the musical comedy Nunsense next week.  This will be the first Broadway musical on our stage since the close of Something Rotten on March 15, 2020.  Are we excited?  We are!

Protocols for safety!
In order to be open as a theater we have to follow strict protocols.  No one can be admitted without proof of vaccination or a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours.  Everyone will be masked except when dining and our capacity will be limited to allow social distancing.  Family and friends can opt to be seated together but otherwise guests will have at least six feet of separation from others.

Food and Joy!
None of that will interfere with great food and service and the unique joys of live musical theater.  Nunsense is blessed with a dynamite cast and they are raring to go.  To reserve your seats you can call the box office at (559) 266-9494 or reserve on our website at this link.
Get Nunsense!

Last chance for In the Meantime!
If you have not yet seen In the Meantime, you still have an opportunity this Friday, Saturday or Sunday Matinee.  Along with an excellent dinner you’ll enjoy an intimate concert from a few of GCP’s best.  Get your seats at the box office (266-9494) or at this website link.

Meanwhile, we’re in the second-to-last weekend for In the Meantime, the intimate concert by a rotating cast of Good Company Players’ veterans.  Before the concert you’ll see a reel of video highlights from great GCP shows.

Here’s a lovely note from one couple about In the Meantime

“Just a note to let you know how much we enjoyed every aspect of our RR/GCP experience on Sunday! It started with a warm welcome from the vaccine card checker as we arrived, then Danielle in the box office. Brunch was outstanding with a superb meal (stuffed mushrooms, oh my!), our fabulous waitress Melody, and Aunie, who kept the coffee and water flowing. The icing on the cake was entertainment by the remarkably talented Meg Clark and Terry Lewis. This was our first meal out since we were at RR on March 15, 2020 for Something Rotten, and I was thrilled that we were able to “bookend” our quarantine at one of my favorite places. It was a fantastic experience. Thank you!”

 
Reserve for In the Meantime here!

Until the pandemic is behind us, proof of vaccination or a recent negative COVID test is required for admission to the theater. 

Guests wear masks except when dining. And we adhere to social distancing.  Families and friends may arrange with the box office to sit together. Otherwise, all attendees are seated at least six feet apart and many of our tables are purposely kept empty. That means our capacity is quite restricted and we limit ticket sales accordingly. All of our meals are table service. Buffets are out of the question for the foreseeable future.

Reopening

Reopening April 23!
Roger Rocka’s Dinner Theater and Good Company Players are both abuzz with activity and excitement.  We’re getting everything all ready for our long-awaited reopening on Friday.

Doors will open at 5:30 for dinner.  At 6:15 we’ll start a lively reel of video highlights to warm your heart and remind you of why you love musical theater.  At 7 an intimate live concert called In the Meantime will begin, featuring a stellar corps of rotating GCP members.  The evening will include stage stories and favorite moments from emcee Dan Pessano.
With Terry Lewis on piano and a pair of veteran GCP performers drawn from the likes of Jessica Sarkisian, Shawn Williams, Emily Pessano, Ted Nunes, Meg Clark, Camille Gaston and Sara Price, we’ll finally be getting a taste of the music and fun we’ve been missing for more than a year.  Dinner, the highlight reel and In the Meantime will be presented each Friday, Saturday and Sunday Matinee.
There are state health rules we have to follow in order to reopen as a musical theater.  All present will have to show proof of COVID vaccination or a negative test within 72 hours.  Guests will wear masks when not at their tables and we’ll all mask up to protect the performers when the concert starts.  We’ll also need to respect social distancing when entering and leaving.
 

But here’s some really great news!  Good Company Players is in rehearsal for a talent-filled production of Nunsense.  With the county infection rate continuing to improve, Nunsense will blossom on our stage on May 20.

Welcome back!

We’ve added to our delivery area!

Expanded Dinner Delivery Area!

Are you in it?
We’re growing our dinner delivery area this week!  We’ll now bring Roger Rocka’s signature dinners to your door – in the area bounded by Shepherd on the North, Butler on the South, Temperance on the East and Hayes on the West.  Our deliveries are being done by the same people who serve you when you come to our dinner theater to see a show.
We’re still a few months away from having shows up and running again.  It all depends on our community’s success against the pandemic.  And that depends on all of us wearing masks, following the protocols and getting our vaccinations as soon as we can.  But things seem to be improving enough that we should be able to open for limited capacity indoor dining sometime next month.
In the meantime, we have a great selection of Chef Eric’s outstanding dinners for take out or delivery to your home.  Order yours now for Thursday, Friday or Saturday evening.

Look over the menu and place your order on our website at this link!

If you have questions or prefer to order by phone, you can call our Box Office at 266-9494.

We look forward to serving you!
By the way, Monday was the one year anniversary of our closure because of COVID-19.  We had just finished the run of Something Rotten and at the time, it seemed like it would be a delay of only a few weeks.  But a year later, here we are.  It really feels like we’re in the home stretch now, and we look forward to seeing you when Good Company Players is again enlivening our stage with wonderful musical theater.

We’re really cookin’!

Feast…

…with no fuss!
