Join
us for An Evening of Laughter & Terror, a theatrical event
from the moment you walk in the door to the final bloody torture
on the stage. Enter of the early 1930s - festive yet dark, elegant
but seedy, a speakeasy like theatre. You'll be greeted by our
white gloved Pierrot ushers, enjoy gypsy jazz music a la Django
Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli (of the Quintette du Hot
Club du France), and can try 'the green devil' absinthe as well
as beer & wine. Arrive as early as 8:00 to enjoy the treats
and the Absinthe Demonstration.
The
event is elegant, sophisticated, sensual, titillating and dark.
Contrasts and theatrics reign: dark violence, suspense, and
the grimly comic. This is the world of melodrama: Great physicality
and broad gestures, heightened states and high stakes permeate
the “French Theatre of Laughter and Terror.” Expect
blood, laughter, madness, and tiny naughty puppets. The performance
begins at 8:30pm and lasts roughly an hour and a half.
Cocktail
attire suggested.
Pre-purchased
tickets are recommended. Leave boring at home that night.
