Carolers and actors will perform throughout the interactive, festive event where guests will have the opportunity to:
- Learn Victorian-era group dances
- Enjoy holiday-styled beverages and lite bites coursed throughout the evening topped off with dessert
- Play a variety of parlor games, including knock rummy, charades and "Yes or No," as seen in the Playhouse's production of A Christmas Carol
- Mix and mingle with Mr. and Mrs. Fezziwig and other Victorian-era characters
Children ages 5 and up can partake in guided fun and games in the parlor room and library, including:
- Victorian-era floor games
- A holiday arts and crafts station
- Puppet shows
- Interactive performances by a magician
- A short, original melodrama written and performed in the Victorian style
