See the show, skip the new Drury Lane restaurant
by JerryH on 12/16/15Drury Lane Theatre Oakbrook Terrace - Oakbrook TerraceThe White Christmas cast did a very nice job performing this classic. The lead role is supposed to be that of Bob Wallace (Bing Crosby, in the movie) and the actor portraying Wallace did well, but the show was stolen by the actor who portrayed Wallace's counterpart, Phil Davis, whose high-spirited enthusiasm was infectious and lifted the entire performance. The entire cast was solid, as usual for Drury Lane. One glaring negative I must mention is the Drury Lane's new restaurant operator, which only recently took over. The choice on the pre-paid prix fixe menu was dismal (three items), upgrades were very expensive, and service was very poor. My advice would be to continue to see Drury Lane shows, but eat somewhere else before the show.
