Dinner For One / NYE Celebration
2022-12-31 19:00 - 23:59
A very special dinner theater performance of the classic, Dinner For One, followed by drinks and dancing to bring in the new year!
Dinner for One is a comedy sketch written by British author for the theatre. It is the ninetieth birthday of upper-class Englishwoman Miss Sophie. She hosts a dinner every year for her friends Sir Toby, Admiral von Schneider, Mr. Pomeroy, and Mr. Winterbottom. She has outlived all of them, but continues to host the party, pretending her friends are alive and seated round the table. Her aged manservant James aids the tradition, reluctantly, by impersonating the guests

The Great Gatsby
2023-01-20 19:00 - 2023-02-12 19:00
A self-made millionaire, Jay Gatsby’s desire for wealth, popularity, and power in the Jazz Age hides a deeper passion: his love for Daisy, the woman he met and fell for years ago, but who has since married wealthy, hulking browbeater Tom Buchanan. When Daisy’s cousin, Nick Carraway, happens to become Gatsby’s unwitting neighbor, he soon finds himself to be a liaison between Gatsby and Daisy.
With the watchful eyes of Dr. Eckleburg’s deteriorating billboard looming overhead, Nick narrates this tragic story of thwarted love, exposing how wealth, materialism, and decaying moral values corrupted the American dream amidst the opulence and dance parties of the 1920s.

This sparkling adaptation of The Great Gatsby beautifully captures the glamour of the Roaring 20s and all the iconic moments of the beloved American classic.

Fridays and Saturdays at 7 pm
Sunday matinees at 2 pm

Yorick and Co. is a comedy about a struggling theatre company on the verge of shutting down when a mysterious benefactor promises a fortune to them on one condition: they use his skull as Yorick in their upcoming production of Hamlet. Desperate for the money they agree, and are shocked to find out that the skull contains a very chatty ghost as well. He becomes a mentor to Lang, the star and producer of the company. He also helps Lang cope with the rest of the cast and crew which includes an alcoholic Claudius, a method actress playing Gertrude, and an Ophelia who is as crazy about Lang as her character is for Hamlet.

8:00 pm – You have arrived at the Metropolitan’s outdoor venue where you are greeted with another bottle of wine and a boxed picnic dinner. Now you settle in on your blanket under the stars and watch the same cast perform (an abridged, one act version) of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet.
