OSTC's Piano Bar Series Continues with 'Holiday Gems' Tonight

Ocean State Theatre Company (OSTC), currently celebrating its third season in its state-of-the-art theatre in Warwick, has announced the continuation of their post-performance Piano Bar Series. "Holiday Gems" will be held following select Friday and Saturday evening performances of the company's current production, Meet Me in St. Louis.

"Coming to the theatre during the holidays is such a great way to escape the hustle and bustle of the season, which is why I think last year's holiday piano bar was so well attended," said Amiee Turner, Producing Artistic Director of Ocean State Theatre Company. "Our patrons have really embraced the 'after party' feel of the post show piano bars."

Following select Friday and Saturday evening performances, the theatre's lobby will be transformed into an intimate performance space, at which patrons will be entertained by cast members, OSTC alumni, and staff members, while enjoying beverages and snacks, which will be available for purchase from the theatre's lobby bar.

"Holiday Gems" will be hosted by Mike Daniels, who audiences will remember from his portrayal of Snetsky in OSTC's Inaugural Season production of Fools, as well as his appearances in Children's Festival productions of How I Became a Pirate, The Fabulous Fable Factory, and Schoolhouse Rock Live! Musical accompaniment will be provided by the musical director for Meet Me in St. Louis, Esther Zabinski.

"Holiday Gems" will be presented following Friday and Saturday evening performances of Meet Me in St. Louis this weekend and next, December 12, 13, 19 and 20. Attendance at the performance preceding the piano bar is not required. The lobby doors will open for the piano bar at 10:00 pm. The theatre is located at 1245 Jefferson Boulevard, Warwick, RI. Admission is free, but seating is limited, so reservations are strongly recommended and can be made by calling (401) 921-6800.
