The first time Ms. “V” saw this performance of “Seussical the
Musical” at the
Alhambra was during June 24 – Aug.2, 2015.
When the Alhambra Theatre & Dining last
mounted the lovable family-friendly summer show in 2017, “Seussical
the Musical”, it sold every ticket. With the summer heat
descending upon the north Florida venues and COVID rules lifting a little a
bit, the Alhambra is preparing for another sell out run – and just in time for
some much-needed summer fun. The Alhambra will open its Annual Family
Summer Show on June 17.
One of the most performed shows in America, Seussical the Musical is
a fantastical, magical, musical extravaganza! Tony award winning writers,
Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty (Lucky Stiff, My Favorite Year, Once on
This Island, Ragtime), have lovingly brought to life all of our
favorite Dr. Seuss characters, including Horton the Elephant, The Cat in the
Hat, Gertrude McFuzz, lazy Mayzie and a little boy with a big imagination –
Jojo. The colorful characters transport us from the Jungle of Nool to the
Circus McGurkus to the invisible world of the Whos.
The Cat in the Hat tells the story of Horton, an elephant who discovers a speck
of dust that contains the Whos, including Jojo, a Who child sent off to
military school for thinking too many "thinks." Horton faces a double
challenge: not only must he protect the Whos from a world of naysayers and
dangers, but he must guard an abandoned egg, left in his care by the
irresponsible Mayzie La Bird. Although Horton faces ridicule, danger,
kidnapping and a trial, the intrepid Gertrude McFuzz never loses faith in him.
Ultimately, the powers of friendship, loyalty, family and community are
challenged and emerge triumphant.
The Alhambra is thrilled to announce IKEA Jacksonville is the presenting
sponsor of Seussical the Musical. IKEA will be using the Alhambra to treat
its staff to several shows, including a behind the scenes dress rehearsal
viewing. IKEA will also offer special package pricing to its legions of Family
Members, what Ikea considers to be its most loyal customers.
Offered Alhambra Managing Partner, Craig Smith, “Having a global retailer like
IKEA recognize the value of the Alhambra to its local community marketing plan
is a milestone for what we’ve accomplished over the last 11 years. It’s
meaningful for us on a lot of levels, and we are excited to work with them even
more as we discover who we can help each other grow our brands and businesses.”
On the Menu: Executive Chef DeJuan Roy creates a new menu for every
Alhambra show, usually borrowing influences from the script to shape his
selections and recipes. Thanks to Chef Roy's culinary magic, the Alhambra is
now known as much for its exceptional dining as for its theatrical productions.
The menu for Smoke on the Mountain features:
First Course: (Choice of One) Summer Salad with
greens, Mandarin oranges, sweet carrots, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions,

It has literally been a month of Sundays since we’ve had a review on “Around Town with
Ms. “V” due to the pandemic shutdown in March; nonetheless we thank God that
we are alive and well.Florida has only reached Stage 2 of carefully reopening some businesses with
social distancing and having patrons don masks, yet we are proud to report that
the “Alhambra Theatre and Dining” has complied to safely protect
its patrons and their employees.
Masks are not required during your meal, but you are requested to mask-up when
going to the restrooms. Some people
chose to have on their masks during the show’s presentation, but that’s
entirely up to you.
Space between tables has been designed so that only you and people who are in
your party, are sitting together.
Plexiglass is positioned throughout the showroom in order to separate one
layer of tables from the next level of tables.
All servers are protecting you with their facial coverings and gloved
hands.
Yes, you can still get your favorite alcoholic beverage brought to your table,
and don’t forget to get your professional 5x7 framed photo taken with a themed
background to commemorate your visit along with a memorable key chain.
The show “Grease” is fantastic. When I
asked if I should watch the original movie with my Granddaughter, it was
suggested that I wait until after viewing the show, and she was so right (but
it really didn’t matter). A couple of
the songs were different and of course, some of the scenes have been changed
under the excellent production of Mr. Tod Booth. The actors (some of whom you might have seen
before), are seasoned participants as they act, sing and dance with the upmost precision.
The Alhambra Theatre and Dining is a small business that is doing everything
that they can do tin order to maintain quality while presenting the best three
course meals by Executive Chef DeJuan Roy.
Also, please be kid to your servers because they work hard to give
quality service. Tipping is allowed and
recommended. The only negative of my evening
was the coffee that tasted like a weak tea, nevertheless, there’s still a Starbucks
still open somewhere on the way home.
“Grease” may be sold out (even with the addition of three extra weeks); but in
order for experience live theater, you may want to join the Alhambra’s
Royalty Partners. These Season
Ticket holders, who have purchased tickets before the onset of the Coronavirus,
get first preference to available seating.

The Alhambra Theatre & Dining announced it will open its doors on June 11
with Rogers & Hammerstein’s classic, “Cinderella.” With social distancing guidelines strictly
enforced and capacity restricted to 50% occupancy, the Alhambra will continue
its run as America’s longest-running dinner theater. The re-opening plan took some juggling of
seating charts and schedules, not to mention the patience of more than 10,000
guests who already had tickets for the remainder of the year, but the curtain
will rise on June 11, the originally-scheduled dates for the Alhambra’s run of
“Cinderella.“ The show is scheduled to
close on July 26. Patrons are asked to
wear a mask except during mealtime.
Because of the social distancing guidelines related to COVID-19, the Alhambra
will only be able to sell limited number of additional tickets. The show was already 70% sold out when it
suspended sales in late April. Following
the math of only allowing 50% capacity, the Alhambra actually added several
matinee dates to accommodate the overage.
“We are thrilled to roll with whatever punches we need to open for our
family of guests and staff,” said Alhambra Managing Partner Craig Smith. He continued, “Our job is to provide the
community a break from the day-to-day and give folks a place to go to make some
memories. We’re grateful we get to do our job again and that our guests and
staff are so accommodating.”
Adding the additional dates not allow the Alhambra to sell more tickets. It simply gave them the opportunity to seat
existing ticket holders, some who were asked to switch dates and tables. “Our guests were ready, willing and able to
work with us. Our staff was willing to
switch from days to nights when called upon. Our kitchen staff was happy to add day time
hours to an already-busy schedule. It
was really a great demonstration of being in this thing together,” said
Smith.
Smith recounted that the most challenging part was figuring out what to do with
the remaining shows on the calendar, including the nearly-sold out, “Grease.” To do that, the Alhambra is moving its run of
The Music Man to 2021 and replacing it with “Grease” from July 30 to September
20. This adds two weeks to the original
run of “Grease,” allowing for the Alhambra to accommodate its current ticket
holders as-well-as take more reservations.
Said Smith, “We knew when we scheduled it that “Grease” would be a big
seller for us. We had the opportunity to
accommodate the 12,000 “Grease” ticket holders and honoring our commitment to
“The Music Man” by simply moving it to next season.” The Alhambra will allow anyone unable to use
their current tickets in their new seats and date as a credit for a future
show. “Love, Sex and IRS,” will run as
planned in late September, and with matinees added to create more seating for
what Smith expects to be a strong seller.
In compliance with local, state and federal guidelines for COVID-19, the
Alhambra will heighten its usual high safety standards. Staff will undergo training in safe service
practices as well as what to look for regarding symptoms. All staff will be wearing masks and gloves. They have also been instructed to stay home if
there is even a hint of a related symptom. In an email to ticket holders, the Alhambra
has asked customers to take the same precautions, and has offered to waive the
“day of” transfer fee to those needing to change dates at the last minute.
In addition, the Alhambra will suspend for “Cinderella” and “Grease” its
Opening Night Gala pre- and post-show celebrations in the lobby of the Theatre.
“We take for granted our usual
processes because we’ve been at this for so long, so we’re having to review and
change every contact point from food delivery to pens our guests use to sign
their credit card receipt. It’s been a
good exercise for us in terms of efficiency.” Said Smith. Complimentary Champagne and Hors d'oeuvres
served at your table before dinner, on Gala evening.
Reconfiguring process is not new to the Alhambra, which had successfully
pivoted at the beginning of the business closing period by switching from
seated dining for 375 people to take-away and curbside delivery. They later added dine-in options once the
options were allowed. The Alhambra will
continue its curbside to-go dining program.

help you make it special. Chef DeJuan is preparing an Easter Lunch like no other,
and it would be our honor to prepare your celebration feast.
You'll find our menu is a perfect fit for four people - and it's us, so you

The show “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” will
be in town until March 22, 2020, at the Alhambra Theater & Dining. This is a musical/comedy that will keep you “Laughing-Out-Loud”
all afternoon or evening. The Alhambra’s
adaptation of the original movie, and 1995 Broadway production will keep your
interest especially under the direction of Tod Booth*, Choreography from Shain
Stroff*, Musical direction led by Cathy Murphy Giddens & the wonderful set
designs of Ian Black and David Dionne.
All the “HTSIBWRT” actors are very entertaining with their singing, acting,
dancing and quirky mannerisms. Ricky
Cona* plays the wonderfully funny character Bud Frump, whose voice you
will love to hear and gladly wait for his next line in the show. Christopher Lewis stars as J. Piertrepont
Finch, who delightfully freezes in place when the narrations from the book
that he references often, comes to life.
Kudos also go out to Maddie Bryan who plays J.B.'s cutie-pie,
ex-night-club cigarette girl Hedy La Rue.
*Actors’ Equity Association
The meal that Executive Chef DeJuan Roy prepared for this stage presentation
will satisfy your appetite, so come ready for a great meal and show.
