"Mutiny in the Parlor" at TCR's Curtain Raiser!

By Theatre Cedar Rapids
DO YOU HAVE YOUR TICKETS YET?
Dress for the 1920's and join us for live music by prohibition-era jazz band "Mutiny in the Parlor" during the cocktail reception at TCR's Curtain Raiser!  A fun time with drinks, snacks, and all of your friends at TCR!

A little about "Mutiny in the Parlor" ...Mutiny in the Parlor plays prohibition-era jazz, swing, and parlor tunes -- songs that spun on your great-grandmother's Victrola while she and the other flappers danced the Charleston. Smooth as silk and occasionally naughty as moonshine, Mutiny's sweet melodies, spirited improvisation, and rousing vocal stylings will transport you to another era!
$60 per ticket ($50 for TCR Members) - OR, become a "Host" and get 10 tickets (plus more benefits!) for $500.
  • Program includes 80th season preview performances, surprise guests and special announcements.
  • Entertainment includes prohibition era music before & after the program.
  • Food and moonshine provided (with a cash bar available)
  • Cocktail attire (If you prefer, dress for the era or add a hat for fun!)
  • To get your ticket and password, contact the TCR Box Office or go to www.theatrecr.org/curtainraiser.
