Sarah Raines to Bring Valentine's Day Cabaret Dinner to The Ellery Room

The Sarah Raines Concert Series, which produced the hilarious, sold-out event "All's Lehrer in Love and War," presents a Valentine's Day Cabaret Dinner theatre at The Ellery Room on February 10. Expect more laughs, delicious food, and leave smiling whether you come with a group, with a date, or stag!
