Dinner Theater

Oakland’s annual dinner theater is well known throughout the community and beyond.  People who attend are warmly greeted with valet parking, a wide variety of freshly prepared salads, entrees and desserts, as well as wholesome entertainment that highlights the talents that exist within the congregation.  Dinner theater originated as a place where Oakland members could fellowship in a smaller setting, and produce an evening of fun for others.  Dinner theater has evolved into much more.  It is now a highly anticipated event that shapes relationships within the congregation, and offers a way to reach out to the larger community.
