Theater fans with a sweet tooth can indulge both of their cravings at an upcoming presentation by the Washougal High School theater department.
"Check Please" and "Check Please: Take 2" are two one-act plays that will show Thursday, Friday and Saturday, at 7 p.m., at the Washburn Performing Arts Center.
Each show is approximately 25 minutes long, and guests can dine on chocolate torte, blueberry cheesecake, tiramisu and strawberry shortcake delicacies during the intermission.
Theater Director Kelly Gregersen called the show "fall-down funny."
"It's a great date night or a great hang-out-with-friends night or just a go-on-your-own-and-eat-good-dessert night," he said.
The plot follows a guy and a girl on some of the worst blind dates imaginable.
A non-dairy dessert will be available for those who do not eat milk products.
Tickets - $8 for adults, and $6 for students and senior citizens - will be available at the door or in advance by calling 954-3107.
