TSM Quick Take
Worth it for you?
Biblical Times Dinner Theater is a strong fit for families, faith-based travelers, and adults seeking a Christian-themed live show paired with a meal. The main draws are its immersive dinner shows, gospel concerts, and the option to visit an on-site museum, all in an indoor setting that works well for rainy days or groups wanting a seated experience. The content is explicitly Christian, and the shows combine music, comedy, and theatrical storytelling.
The biggest objection is the price, which is higher than a basic museum or walk-through attraction, and the experience is time-based—expect to spend 2–3 hours seated. It is not a good fit for those seeking thrill rides, hands-on exhibits, or visitors who prefer secular entertainment.
Quick decision
Should You Go?
Worth it for families?
yes — If your family is comfortable with a longer seated dinner show and Christian content, it's a good fit.
Worth it for adults only?
yes — Adults who enjoy live music, comedy, or faith-based theater will find it worthwhile, especially as an alternative to ride-based attractions.
Worth it on a rainy day?

Midweek matinee (Wednesday 3 p.m.) is likely the calmest option based on current schedules.

The "Feast of Biblical Proportion" lives up to its name, serving hearty American comfort food that satisfies even robust appetites. Guests with dietary restrictions can request gluten-free options when booking their tickets. The dining experience takes place in exceptional comfort - the theater's 27-inch wide rocking chairs provide ample space and support throughout the 2-3 hour show.
Beyond the main dinner theater experience, visitors can explore the on-site Bible museum and Shroud of Turin exhibit (separate admission required). These educational displays complement the theatrical experience, though they're entirely optional.
