WHO THE HECK ARE YOU!?
Drew & Julie Durrant, owned and operated Mack's Inn Playhouse from May 2008 until September 2012. With
the Durrant's at the helm Mack's Inn Playhouse became a destination for family friendly musicals spoofs for
the Greater Yellowstone Area. They would perform 70 shows each summer and squeeze them all in between
Memorial Day and Labor Day.
In the summer or 2012, long time friends and patrons, Rob and Sherri Dias, approached the Durrants about
working with the students at Diamond Ranch Academy and opening a new dinner theater in Southern Utah.
Rattlin' D Playhouse was born. Now all they needed was a stage! November 2013, the playhouse found a
temporary home in the HURRICANE COMMUNITY CENTER and "My Big Fat Southern Utah Christmas" opened
November 29th, 2013. Since then the Playhouse has produced 9 musical spoofs. In March 2014, the Playhouse
moved into it's permanent home located on the beautiful campus of Diamond Ranch Academy.
Rattlin' D Playhouse will now be able to produce 5 musical spoofs each year and has doubled its capacity. The
Playhouse is unique in that ALL of the profits are placed in a "Young Performing Artist" scholarship funds for
current and former students at Diamond Ranch Academy.
BUT WAIT....THERE'S MORE!!
In 2015, Mack's Inn Playhouse once again became available and the temptation to return was too great and so
with a little good ole fashioned fandanglin' the Rattlin' D Players will be performing in Island Park in the summer
of 2015.
The Rattlin' D Playhouse now has two great locations; the winter time home in Hurricane, Utah and the summer
place in Island Park, Idaho.
"We look forward to entertaining you!"
