Petite Violette Hosts Holiday Dinner Shows in November and December

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and soon, it will sound like it too, at Petite Violette. The popular annual dinner show Boar's Head Feast with the Madrigal Singers returns to the restaurant Monday, December 19th through Thursday, December 22nd.

The show features The Capitol City Opera Madrigal Singers, an a cappella vocal ensemble which specializes in secular and sacred music spanning the centuries. In addition to seasonal songs, lively carols and holiday hits, the Boar's Head Feast features a four-course dinner accompanied by two glasses of wine. Dinner starts with hors d'oeuvres, a fresh salad and a choice of gourmet entrée, and it's capped off by house-made dessert. The Madrigal Singers perform between courses. The evening begin at 6:15 p.m. with a cash bar and hors d'oeuvres, and the songs start promptly at 7 p.m.

Petite Violette owner, Michael Gropp says, "The Boar's Head Feast is a fun way to top off a year of dinner shows with the Capitol City Opera Company Singers. The Madrigal Singers get to showcase their extensive a cappella talents and bring some holiday spirit to our dinner tables. This is a popular annual event for us, and we are excited to extend the shows through the week, leading up to our Murder Mystery weekend shows."

The holidays head to Petite Violette already this month, with an all-new Murder, Mystery, and Mayhem show: HollyMark's Holiday Countdown to Murder. It opens Friday, November 18th and Saturday, November 19th and runs through Friday, December 30th, playing on Friday and Saturday nights. (There are no shows on November 25th and December 24th.) Fans of Hallmark movies, Agatha Christie and spoofy comedy will have a ho-ho-holiday laugh at HollyMark's Holiday Countdown to Murder!

The team at HollyMark and Tiara Media productions are at it again. They have created another season of wholesome movies filled with carols, twinkling lights and love. But this year, they have to do more than prove the holidays are about more than presents. Someone has been deliberately sabotaging the festive films and killing off the stars of these uplifting tales! With the network down, holiday spirit is dwindling all the way to the North Pole. Who would do such a vile and sinister thing?!? Come help us unwrap this mystery.

Murder, Mystery, and Mayhem at Petite Violette is an interactive murder mystery dinner unlike any other.

Shows run Friday and Saturday nights at 7:30 p.m. (with check-in from 6:45 to 7:15 p.m.).

Two professional actors greet all guests at the door and explain how the evening will go. At that time, the actors give every audience member a part in the show. Parts may be speaking roles (some with props) or a group sing along. Participation is highly encouraged, but not required. Paired with top-notch entertainment is a gourmet four-course meal. It begins with a table of hot and cold appetizers, followed by a fresh salad with a glass of wine that is included in the ticket price. Then there is a choice of entrees including meat, fish and vegetarian options, followed by homemade dessert.
