Jubilations Dinner Theatre Calgary - Romantic Time with My Spouse

In our 1st month of our marriage (August 2009), Dave and I committed in having a one-night-lovedate-a-week despite of the busy schedule the world demands for us.    And we always look forward to this day of the week.  Usually we make Tuesday our Love Nights every week but for this instance, we made a legal excuse to have it on Wednesday, March 10, 2010 because the Dinner and Show at Jubilations Calgary Dinner Theatre only have showings from Wednesday to Sunday.   From Wednesday to Saturday, the seating times are from 6:30pm-6:50pm and Sunday is 5:00pm-5:20pm.



 It was our first experience in watching a Dinner and Show event and we were very impressed.  The casts as well as the staffs and/or waitresses are wearing their customes and were very soaked on their characters.  They spoke and acted like the real characters and we love them.  The place itself, Jubilations Calgary, had a great setting - great paintings and environment.

The Dinner Theatre we went to last March 10, 2010 was Luck Be A Lady (Showings from February 12, 2010-April 11, 2010).  The setting was in Copa, most likely a Vegas-setting.  We found the story or the plot to be funny and entertaining.  The food were excellent.  The choices were great.  When I checked the reviews or comments about Jubilations Calgary Dinner Theatre, they were mostly pleased with the performance.  So we went and yes, we didn't expect it to be this much fun and great.


We started with starters, Dino's Italian Tomato Soup - a thick tomato basil soup flavoured with oregano, garlic and vine-ripened tomatoes, and their delicious Summit Salad which is a blend of fresh romaine and iceberg lettuce topped with house-made bruschetta and balsamic vinaigrette.  We ordered their best PinaColada drinks.  After our starters, the show began.  The room's light died and all eyes were fixed on the stage.

After the 1st part, the entrees were served.  I chose their Fremont Chicken, a chicken breast smothered in a succulent tarragon cream sauce served with roasted potatoes and seasonal vegetables and Dave loved their Ring-a-Ding Rib, a slow roasted to medium Alberta Prime Rib with mouth-watering au jus served with roasted potatpes and seasonal vegetables as well.  They're both excellent.

The 2nd part comes after the main courses.  It was a very lovely evening.  Before the ending, they served us desserts.  We tasted both the Sin City Chocolate Cake and Mobster Mousse Cake.  You may wonder how they tasted, and yes, they're delightful.  The Sin City Chocolate Cake has a silky smooth chocolate cream icing that's layered between its three moist layers of rich chocolate cake and the Mobster Mousse Cake is a triple berry cake that's layered with luscious yogurt mousse that's been whipped with sweet cranberry and raspberry juices, and then glazed with a blend of strawberries, blueberries and cranberries.  Yup, very yummy.

Our Dinner and Show experience in Jubilations Calgary Theatre Ltd. is an awesome time with my husband.  I would considered a romantic one when you have the table all by yourself and your spouse.  Since there is an option of sharing the table with other 2 more people, go with the table just for two.  You will enjoy more and savor more of each other's presence.  I love our time together.  And this experience has added in our time capsule on our 1st year of marriage.

 The Jubilations Dinner Show Schedule for 2010 after the Luck Be A Lady will be as follows:

• April 16, 2010 - June 20, 2010 - Good Vibrations: Summer of '68
• June 15, 2010 - August 29, 2010 - Law and Order: Canadian Files
• September 3, 2010 - November 7, 2010 - Greased
• November 12, 2010 - February 6, 2011- Night at the Museum of Rock and Roll 

We will definitely come back again to Jubilations Dinner Theatre Calgary (Next to Westbrook Mall, Bow Trail and 37 St. SW - 403 249 7799).  They also have another location but it's in Edmonton.  I believe there's 1 more dinner theatre as far as I am aware here in Calgary that do Dinner Theatre or Dinner and Show, you probably heard of the Stage West.  We have not been there yet but I've heard it was good too but more expensive compared to Jubilations.  

Well, have fun every one.  Go and bring your spouse to Jubilations Calgary, or to any Dinner Theatres in your own town or city and she/he will definitely enjoy.  Just for a tip, go get your tickets at Costco, I got the 2 tickets or 2 vouches for only $100 CAD.  So we saved about $20.  It's worth it ;)
