CHRISTMAS EVE MUSICAL RADIO DRAMA DINNER SHOW

WHITE CHRISTMAS MUSIC RADIO DINNER SHOW
December 23 and December 24, 2015

This moving and comic dinner show recreates the experience of attending a live recording of a 1930s HOLIDAY MUSIC radio show broadcast on Christmas Eve. Our fabulous actors and musicians will be performing classic radio drama filled with period holiday songs by pianist and singer Lenny Petinelli and local legends, zany old commercials, sound effects and a comic version of "T'was the Night Before Christmas" by our cast creating a show that touches and lightens the heart.

The moment guests arrive they are transported into the past. The beautiful prohibition era style dining room is elegantly set with old world holiday decor, tables covered in velvet and lace and the room lit by candlelight. The delicious menu planned is four-courses of traditional holiday dishes. Cozy and intimate, delicious and warming, this storybook experience will be remembered.

The experience includes a holiday welcome reception of our special cocktail punch and light snacks prior to seating. Once all guest are seated and libations ordered our radio announcer and host will begin the evening's show with singers, casts, sound-effects and live piano.

Dress: We request guest to dress in formal attire or in vintage costume from the 1920's thru the 1940's. Otherwise gentlemen are requested to wear a jacket and tie and ladies cocktail attire.
