GERTRUDE STEIN & The Lost Generation: A Staged Radio Play & Themed Party! w. Live Music, Dripped Absinthe & the Jack Rose!

Jane Hardy returns for ONE NIGHT ONLY! with her tour-de-force radio drama portrayal of the dynamic matriarch and the (lost) generation of writers/artists she mentored.

9:00 PM, Sat. June 13 @ The Old Franklin School in Metuchen. House opens @ 8:30.

WITH: theatrical lighting, period costuming, Golden Age radio equipment, extensive sound effects, and a selection of period Parisian ballads (incl. "La Vie en Rose" and "Sous le ciel de Paris") sung live by our resident honey-toned chanteuse, Danielle Illario.

PLUS: Dripped Absinthe, wine, the Jack Rose Cocktail (using Harry MacHelone's 1920's Paris recipe), and light snacks.

AND: A dozen lucky attendees will receive a rose (is a rose is a rose), courtesy of Gertrude & Gardenias. (If it's a particularly special day for you or someone in your party, let me know, and I'll make sure you get one.)

Cabaret-style table seating. $25 at the door. Again, house opens (and cocktails are served) at 8:30 PM; performance begins at 9 PM.

Go to Paris this summer for ONLY $25! 491 Middlesex Ave IS 27 Rue de Fleurus!
