Derby Dinner Playhouse will present Grumpy Old Men The Musical, January 4 through February 12, 2023.  For ticket information please call 812-288-8281 or visit www.derbydinner.com 

Grumpy Old Men The Musical is the story of two aging men who are neighbors and have

been feuding for most of their lives. Invigorated by a shared affection for the new

neighbor across the street, the beautiful, eccentric, and charming Ariel, they face-off as

romantic rivals until their hilarious shenanigans finally bring about a resolution to  

long-standing differences. Based on the 1993 film which starred Jack Lemmon, Walter

Matthau, and Ann-Margret, this stage adaptation captures the lovably crotchety

characters through twinkling humor and the affectionate depiction of a small town that

feels like home to everyone.

Grumpy Old Men The Musical was written by Dan Remmes with music by Neil Berg and lyrics by Nick Meglin. Derby Dinner’s production is under the direction of Lee Buckholz with choreography by Heather Paige Folsom and musical direction by Scott Bradley.  The cast will include Jim Hesselman as John Gustafson and John Payonk as Max Goldman, along with Colette Delaney Mattingly, Cary Wiger, J.R. Stuart, Kyle Braun, Harli Cooper, Sara King-Bliss, and more!
