Carey Dinner Theatre presented two
summer productions: the gospel
musical “Peace in the Valley,” June
16 - July 2, and the musical comedy
spoof “Das Barbecü,” July 12-23.
“Peace in the Valley” tells the story
of a small town church which faces
the prospect of closing its doors
because of financial difficulties.
“Das Barbecü” is loosely based on
Wagner’s “Ring Cycle,” but instead of
Valhalla, the play takes place in Texas
where the personalities and setting
are just as grandiose as any opera.
