Mack's Inn Playhouse

What is Mack's Inn Playhouse?

 

Although the building has been a place of entertainment since it was built in the early 70's, during that time it was called The Musical Circus, Playmill, and Mack's Inn Dinner Theater.  

In 2007, the Durrants took over the space and Mack's Inn Playhouse became a destination for family friendly musical spoofs.  The Durrant's operated the Playhouse from 2007 through 2012.  Show included: "Phantom of the Grand Ole Opry", "Hillbillies:90210", "Butch Cassidy and the SUN Burnt Kid", "Pirates of the Car-Rib-Bee-An", "Robin Hood: Tale of Rottingham", "Less Miserables: A Whole Lot Less Miserable",  "HOME School Musical", and "The Three Amigos: Showdown at Del Taco Ranch".  

At the end of the 2012 summer season, the Durrants ventured down to Southern Utah and opened a year round playhouse called Rattlin' D Playhouse.  They continued to pack the houses with their unique brand of family friendly musical spoofs.  

In 2015, the space at Mack's Inn became available and the Durrants, along with their new partners Rob and Sherri Dias, secured the building and will again entertain sell out crowds at Mack's Inn Playhouse.
