Laughter and Southern charm take center stage this January as Alhambra Theatre & Dining proudly presents Southern Fried Funeral. Opening January 9, this delightful comedy promises an evening of heartwarming humor and family drama that’s as comforting as a plate of biscuits and gravy.
Set in the small town of New Edinburgh, Mississippi, Southern Fried Funeral invites audiences into the chaos and hilarity of the Frye family as they gather to honor their late patriarch. Packed with witty dialogue, eccentric relatives, and a heaping helping of Southern hospitality, the play is a hilarious exploration of family dynamics, love, and resilience.
In addition to the stellar performances, Alhambra’s signature dining experience will complement the evening. Guests can savor a mouthwatering menu inspired by Southern cuisine, created by Executive Chef DeJuan Roy. With a commitment to exceptional dining and immersive entertainment, Alhambra continues to redefine the dinner theater experience.
Southern Fried Funeral runs from January 9 through February 9, with performances Tuesday through Sunday evenings and weekend matinees. Tickets are on sale now and include a three-course meal along with the show.
