Dinner theater where the script is 3,000 years old and everyone still argues about the ending.

means A ritual Jewish feast held on Passover, structured around a set order of readings, foods, and questions that retell the story of the Exodus from Egypt.

from From the Hebrew seder, meaning simply 'order' or 'arrangement' — the same root sense found in words like siddur (the prayer book, also an 'ordering' of prayers). The name refers to the fixed sequence of the evening: specific foods eaten in a specific sequence, blessings and questions recited in a set pattern, all laid out in the text called the Haggadah. So the word itself is less about the meal and more about the choreography — 'order' as in the opposite of chaos, a script everyone agrees to follow even while debating every line of it.
