Hell in a Handbag presents QUINCEANERA Benefit at The Edge Theater Celebrating 15 Years!
Hell in a Handbag Productions is turning 15 - so what better way to celebrate than to throw a QUINCEAÑERA-style party?! Handbag's annual benefit will feature FUN as big as the Quinceañera gowns ensemble members will be donning. The evening will include a Mexican buffet, cocktails (including our favorite Cervezas and an old family Sangria recipe) games, a silent and live auction, the world's greatest raffle, and a live performance of Handbag highlights (and lowlights) spanning the past 15 years!
The festivities will take place Sunday, October 15, 2017 from 5 pm - 10 pm at The Edge Theater, 5451 N. Broadway Ave. in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood. Tickets are currently available at www.handbagproductions.org or by calling (800) 838-3006.
The raffle and silent/live auctions feature THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS of things you actually want, including a walk-on role in a Handbag show (priceless!).
The live concert will feature Handbag songs and favorite moments from many of the 50+ productions the company has produced over the past 15 years - from POSEIDON! An Upside Down Musical to Lady X - The Musical - plus video highlights from the Handbag vault.
Enjoy all of your favorite Handbag moments again as shared by the people who were there - the ensemble and special friends of Hell in a Handbag. Handbag promises it will be better than a Time Life special!
"As a Mexican teenager I always felt short changed not being able to have a Quinceañera because of silly of gender expectations", says David Cerda Handbag's Artistic Director, "so I promise to have the biggest and loudest dress ever at the Handbag quinceanera!"
