WHS theater, culinary, choir students combine forces for ‘Oh, What a Knight’

Kelly Gregersen has long been fond of the dinner theater concept, a form of entertainment that combines a multi-course restaurant meal with a staged play or musical.

“Number one, it comes with food, which is always a ‘like’ for me,” the Washougal High School (WHS) drama teacher said, laughing. “But I (also) like the format. It’s a little bit of scripted work. It’s some improvisational work. It just pushes actors in all directions. Instead of performing on stage, they’re performing right in front of the audience. It really pushes them to do theater at a different level, and I love that.”
