When you clear away all the ornaments, decorations, and cobwebs, the sentence says "Performers made dinner."
Subject = performers Predicate = made Direct Object = dinner.
An indirect object in a sentence is quite rare. If there is one, then it's who or what gets the direct object. In this sentence, "themselves" get the dinner, so " themselves " is the indirect object.

In the sentence, the indirect object is "themselves" because it indicates who receives the direct object, which is "dinner". The verb in the sentence is "made." Therefore, the correct answer is A.
