The Theater Artists Studio is a community theater that produces high quality shows, and some of the members have been on Broadway. At this Sunday Matinee, we are going to see a production called THE TWIST OF THE MAGI. Inspired by O’ Henry’s classic tale, “Gift of the Magi,” this full stage production” takes place in a 1940’s radio studio, with a host of wacky characters, compromising situations, and questionable romances. This comical farce with a dash of music, is the perfect recipe for Holiday fun that will delight the entire family.

Join us at the Jazzbird Lounge for a performance by "Joe Garcia & Friends". I have heard him many times before, and he is the BEST percussion artist I have ever heard! Don't miss this one.
Hot Latin Salsa meets Jazz Standards with Tunes to bring Your Holiday Season to a Sizzle! The show features Joe Garcia on percussion & vocals, Benjamin Cortez/piano, Todd Johnson/bass, and Dom Moio/drums. Ravenscroft is pleased to contribute 100% of all donations from this concert to "Outreach Belarus," a humanitarian aid project.

Doors open at 4:45. I suggest you arrive at 5 PM to get a seat, talk with friends. The show is from 6-8. No reserved seats. Bring a sweater or jacket to throw over your chair to save your seat. It can get chilly inside. Come early and hang out with your friends before the show. I recommend you grab your seat first, and then get your drinks.

*Tonight is the charity event, so there is no fee at the door. Give something after you are seated.

Drinks and limited snack available at bar.
