I love this Farmers Market because it has fresh farm vegetables (in season), fresh meats and fresh delicious bake goods. There is also a small sit down counter where you can get a snack or a quick lunch. Also just passed the lunch counter is a ramp to go down to an area where there are iron works, such as lanterns, Shepherd hooks for your bird feeders or flowers. Also there are dolies of various shapes, sizes and many have pretty stitchings of birds, flowers and also for holidays. Please note: Check their website for the days of the week they are open. They are closed on Sundays.

Magic Lantern Shows at Plain & Fancy Theater

The only permanent Magic Lantern Theater in the world is in Lancaster County! Travel back to a time “before the movies” when the spellbinding drama and humor of the Showman and the spectacular projected images from his “Magic Lantern Show” dazzled audiences across America with music and unique Victorian-era special effects. The Magic Lantern Show performs four different shows throughout the year: This is My Country Patriotic Show, Underground Railroad Show, Theater of Fear Halloween Show, and A Christmas Journey Victorian Christmas Show.

Reviewed By CG8102006 - Staten Island, United States

This show uses a 3 lens lantern manufactured in the late 1800s. The narrator changes hand painted lenses made in the same era while telling various Victorian Christmas stories pertaining to the pictures on the lenses. I have simplified and portrayed a cliff note version of this amazing show due to the fact if I explain it any further I would spoil this thrilling event. The narrator is amazing at keeping your attention. It is great for all ages with some captivating audience participation. The theater is small and quaint with cushion bench seating resembling a church atmosphere. Due to its size seating is somewhat limited so get your tickets early. Definitely worth every penny. You would be remiss in not attending this show if you are in Lancaster Pa. There is also a Resturant called Plain and Fancy directly attached to the theater which was wonderful. We had a spectacular and memorable time. Can’t wait to return next year.
