About Desert Star Dinner Theatre

Desert Star Dinner Theatre sits in the historic Iris Theater building in Murray, Utah, offering a unique cabaret-style experience where guests enjoy parody musical productions alongside a full menu of food and drinks. With a capacity of roughly 249–252 seats, the theatre uses round tables for 2–6 guests, and a seating chart is available to help you pick the best view for your group. A laid-back, intimate vibe makes it easy to relax and enjoy a night of clever spoofs—from Star Wars - A Parody to Pirates of the Caribbean parodies—while you dine.

We’ve got you covered with practical details like parking, transit options, and nearby hotels and restaurants to make planning simple. Whether you’re planning a date night, a family outing, or a friendly get-together, Desert Star offers a memorable blend of humor, live performance, and casual dining in the greater Salt Lake City area.

Parking is convenient with a large rear lot and an entrance from the north side, plus nearby public transit lines 45, 200, and 201 stop within easy reach.
