We're back with another iteration of Southern Gothic! This time we'll be treading in the dark depths of love gone wrong while enjoying food gone right to celebrate the sinister side of romance.

This dinner (and brunch!) theatrical event weaves together popular literary stories with live music and unexpected amusements while you enjoy a 4-course meal. The southern gothic genre highlights the macabre, and often supernatural elements, particular to the South's eccentricities and cultural trauma. Always strange, sometimes humorous, these stories will feel like something you heard at twilight on grandma's front porch.

If you joined us for our October show, this is a completely new set of stories and menu. We've also added a brunch show on Sunday to provide more availability for the event!

Event Suitable for 18+, Drink pairings available as add-ons, Bar available at the event.
