Theatre Washington and the Restaurant Association Metropolitan Washington are adding dining offers to Theatre Week, pairing the region’s fall performances with restaurant specials from Sep 24, 2026 through Oct 11, 2026.
Pre-Show Dinners – What You Get
Participating restaurants will offer either a two-course pre-show dinner priced at $25, $45, or $65, or late-night bites at restaurant-specific fixed prices. Theatre Week performance tickets are purchased separately. The dining program creates a useful way to plan the whole evening while keeping the meal and show budgets clear!
The Dining Guide Helps Match a Restaurant to Your Plans
The official dining guide lists options including Philippe Chow at The Wharf for $45, Tiger Fork in Shaw for $45, and participating Colada Shop locations for $25. The range gives readers several ways to pair a meal with a performance without choosing the same kind of restaurant every night.
We say, start with your curtain time and work backward to a dinner reservation that leaves room for travel.
Reserve Dinner With Your Curtain Time in Mind
The offers span Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia and pre-show dinners range from $25, $45, or $65, while late-night prices vary. Use the Theatre Week productions page and dining guide to arrange show tickets and dinner reservations separately.
