Review: ‘Barefoot in the Park’ at The Candlelight Theatre
By Neal Newman on July 23, 2017
“Candlelight, however, does the tradition proud. The food is excellent (unless you are on a limited diet), the servers (usually members of the ensemble) are friendly, and the people you meet, in last night’s case at least, are experienced theatergoers who have seen a variety of area productions.”

By Christina Perryman
“Barefoot in the Park” is a lighthearted comedy that appeals to everyone, even if you’ve never married. The outstanding performers kept the audience laughing from start to finish.”

BWW Review: BAREFOOT IN THE PARK at Candlelight Music Theatre
by Greer Firestone
“There is compelling chemistry between the Polgar and Robertson and Director Paul L. Nolan mines it competently.”

“You get to meet, greet, and know the actors and actresses up close and personal.”
John Callahan, Season Pass Holder since 2012

"The end of the afternoon you leave with the great feeling you have enjoyed another theatrical production with your whole family. In a nutshell, you can't beat Candlelight and that's why Nunsense (2015) was our 48th trek down from Northeast Philly, 42 miles each way...an afternoon with our extended family."

"I have been to several shows here from a drag show to a classic play. The food has always been wonderful and the buffet gives everyone something to enjoy. As for views, given this is a small theater there is not a bad seat. So for a cost effective local show you can not beat this venu!"
“Local talent does very professional job of putting on top notch shows”

Actors serve as waiters. Fresh Salad bar. Peel yourself shrimp. Varied hot dinner buffet. Great desserts!
“Top rate performance and fun for the whole family”
Reviewed May 2013,

We have seen Annie and Bye bye Birdie and we had a wonderful experience both times. Our kids (7&9) loved it as much as we did. The performances are impressive and having your waiter be in the show is a fun feature. It is worth every penny.
