"The tea is such a wonderful experience," shared Diane Maier, NJT Guild Event Chair. "It's a beautiful mix of classic treats, a stunning variety of teas, a wonderful presentation, and live performances. The atmosphere is just electric with excitement right before the season announcement!"
Guests will be treated to a classic afternoon tea, complete with elegant finger sandwiches and delicate tea cakes, complemented by a selection of premium teas generously donated by the Republic of Tea. The entertainment will be just as captivating, featuring favorite performances from the 2025 season, including a reunion of the cast of the hit production, Cabaret, and a thrilling preview of the shows coming to the NJT stage in 2026!
