A great way to spend an evening in Orlando is to enjoy a good dinner accompanied by an entertaining show. There are a number of themed dinner shows in the Orlando area to choose from and one of the most popular is Capone’s Dinner and Show where you can get an Italian dinner with lots of laughs too.
Gangland Chicago of the 1930s prohibition era is the theme of this dinner show. The actors are all garbed in period costumes and each night they present a musical comedy revue that has been entertaining Orlando visitors for more than 15 years.
Even the waiters are part of the theater and are dressed in the clothing of the era. They speak in gangster-style slang and do their best to get you, the audience, involved in the show. In fact, they will demand that you give a password before entering, just as it was in the time of the illicit speakeasy drinking establishments of the 1930s.
Music, jokes and fun are the staples of the dinner show, but it is a dinner too, and you will get a full meal. You can choose from an Italian style buffet that also includes standard American favorites as well. It is a full meal because you can eat or drink as much as you like. There is unlimited draft beer, soda and alcoholic drinks as well.
Like many similar shows in Orlando, Capone’s caters to groups and special outings as well as to the normal family diners. If you can come with a group of 15 then you can enjoy the special group rates. Birthdays, anniversaries, weddings and engagements are celebrated at Capone’s. Wedding proposals are also frequently made in the setting of Capone’s and the management promises that “it will make your engagement night a night she will never forget.”
Capone’s goes even further than just serving as a venue for group events. It also has a special kid’s theater which is perfect for school groups in the Orlando area. Laugh & Learn Kids Musical Theatre is a low cost field trip that’s fun and educational too. Each featured show is a musical comedy fun-filled adventure geared to children ages 4 to 10. Pizza, juice and cookies is also included as part of the deal. For many students this is their first experience with live theater.
If Capone’s sounds like the kind of night you would like to have, then here is the information that you will need: It is located at Kissimmee-St. Cloud/Osceola County, 4740 West US 192 Kissimmee, FL 34746, and you can call them at these numbers: 407-397-2378 and 800-220-8420. The daily show starts at 7:30 pm
On Thanksgiving Day there is a special meal and from Thanksgiving to Christmas there is a Christmas Show. On New Year’s Eve there are two shows, an early bird special and a later show which features a champagne toast at midnight.
So, get your family together and visit Capone’s to enjoy the food and the good laughs too.
