Come Taste & See Is there anything quite as timeless as a nice dinner out on the town followed up with a wonderful show? Whether you’re grabbing a burger and catching a late flick, or dressing up to the nines with 5-star reservations to see the latest Broadway smash, good food and entertainment will always be a winning combo. Woodloch Resort in Hawley, Pennsylvania respects and honors this tradition. Perhaps it is best showcased through what has simply been known for the past 55 years as Theme Night. On select evenings, the stereotypical Poconos resort backdrop would be “transformed” to bring guests to exotic locales such as Hawaii, Paris, Camelot, the Wild West, and even journeys through time! The dining hall would be decorated accordingly, with every patron greeted by a colorful cast of characters representing each theme. With a friendly “hello” and a handshake, diners were then escorted to their dressed and set tables in the main dining room. Dinners were always something special; a decadent feast of flavors went hand in hand with every Theme Night. Woodloch’s famous homemade soups, salads and breads preceded bountiful main courses like beef tenderloin, Jail Island salmon, jumbo shrimp cocktail, twin pork medallions and even a vegetarian “cauliflower steak.” Guests were wise to save some room for dessert; they were rewarded with ice cream dishes, chocolate lava cakes, and creative spins on classics like crème brulee and cheesecake. Each and every dish was served by the regular staff, dressed harmonious with the evening. As dessert bowls were licked clean, a literal parade of staff would march through the corridors of the dining room, featuring costumed characters of all kinds, beckoning guests to join them for the rest of the evening. Plenty of photo ops ensued, and many a happy family memory would be captured. In the early days of the resort, entertainment staff would lead the parade straight to a celebration with live music from the house band. In 1979, the resort took their Theme Nights to the next level by coupling it up with entertainment after the parade. Using a regular cast, including show director Joey Casella, every show featured song and dance numbers congruent with the evening’s theme. Guests loved it, and it became an annual tradition- each year bringing something new to the excited crowd. What started out as a modest feature in front of only about 100 sets of eyes gained quite a bit of popularity over time. As seating became scarcer as the resort grew, the smaller venue of the resort’s “North Lodge” simply wasn’t enough to accommodate everyone. In 1987, Woodloch opened their Heritage Nightclub, with seating for more than 600 guests. A supersized stage with trapdoor, state-of-the-art sound system, retracting video screens and huge dance floor truly brought any featured acts to the next level. The stage grew, and so did the production of the show! More stage space meant more room for elaborate set-piece props, including staircases, cars and airplanes, ships and elaborate mural backdrops. Woodloch celebrated their “Wonderful World of Television” night in 2014 with the purchase of a 22 foot LCD display, bringing truly vibrant and breathtaking imagery to the stage. And no show would ever be complete without a grand finale featuring stage pyrotechnic displays!

Woodloch Resort! As Woodloch’s shows grew, so did the interest in joining the cast. As word spread of the flourishing production, it reached aspiring Broadway stars and entertainers from across the lands. Show rehearsal would start in November of each year with opening night just before New Year’s Eve. Guests would have the entire calendar year to enjoy the feature before the cycle would bring the next incarnation. “Every year as our current show draws to an end, we work diligently to ensure that next year’s production raises the bar,” says Brad Kiesendahl, owner. “I can say for sure that we are always very excited to bring new thrills and smiles to our guests!” Though the cast has said hello and farewell to many faces over the years, the spirit of bringing Broadway magic to the Pocono Mountains remains the same. After a 20 month hiatus from 2020, the show is officially back on! 2022’s Theme Show features Woodloch’s tribute to “Islands of the World.” From the Caribbean to Great Britain, Long Island to Hawaii and everything in between, visitors can expect over an hour of world-class entertainment for all ages to enjoy. Calypso and reggae, maybe a twist of country music. “2022’s show echoes our very first theme night, which paid homage to our 50th state, Hawaii,” says Joey Casella, show director. “That was 1967, and it’s safe to say things have changed a little bit since then. Still, this is a wonderful tribute to those days for some of our guests who will remember!” Woodloch’s Theme Show is offered Wednesday and Saturday evenings through the summer and Saturdays the rest of the year round. Come visit Woodloch Resort and enjoy all their Theme Night and resort has to offer!
