Based on the iconic comedy sketch that became a NYE tradition across Europe, DINNER FOR ONE tells the hilarious story of a dutiful butler helping his employer celebrate her birthday, complete with unpredictable mishaps, a little too much wine, and enchanting live music.

Returning after a sold-out premiere during the winter of 2023, DINNER FOR ONE is a hilarious and heartfelt celebration of love, loss, found family, and live music.

“Dinner for One is 60 minutes of theatrical perfection - sweet, funny, charming, silly, bittersweet, and thoroughly entertaining.”

— Cherry and Spoon

PAY AS YOU ARE TICKETS

PAY AS YOU ARE pricing asks those who routinely pay $45 for theater tickets to pay that amount; it is the actual fair market value of the ticket. If an audience member needs to pay less, they can choose to do so. Likewise, by selecting to pay more than the market price, you help cover the cost of someone else’s ticket and welcome more audiences to the Jungle Theater.
