Opening Night for Pirates of Penzance is drawing near, and plans for the traditional Opening Night festivities are in full-swing.
There is something about this musical that is so exciting and whimsical, that we really want to extend that into the pre-show party. Hence, PIRATE-PALOOZA, a FREE celebration of all things "piratical."
First and foremost, we want this to be fun for all ages, so we are encouraging families to attend. To help with that, we have special prices for adults ($20) to go along with the kids ticket price ($15).
Next, we decided to make this be something special, and not your "typical opening night party." The best way to do that? We'd make ours a COSTUME EVENT! We are inviting everyone to attend the show in whatever (family-friendly) type of pirate costume that they like. There will even be some prizes for those in costume that night, including prizes from Pirate Brands snacks and Pirates Dinner Adventure in Buena Park!
Music and entertainment... we've got plenty.
What pirate party would be complete without a visit from "Captain Jack Sparrow?" We dare not answer, instead, we've invited him to join the festivities and mingle with our audience members.
We have sea shanties being sung by Kapt Kula's Pyrat Band.
We have a FREE photo opportunity with "Loot & Booty," a booth featuring "Captain I. Kidd- the Piratical Insult Comic," and FREE face painting and Arrrrt project for the kids!
And... we need some food, don't we? Yes!!
We have arranged to bring one of THE hottest LA food trucks from Twitter, directly to the party. The truck is "GRILL 'EM ALL" and they will be selling some of the best burgers you'll ever eat.
We went all the way out to Glendale (that's a trek for us South-Bayers, who never leave town), just so we could sample the food. WOW! How about a burger with cream cheese, bacon, beer-soaked onions, malt vinegar aioli, and sriracha sauce, with fries cooked in truffle oil?? REALLY? Sign us up! Don't fret, they have a plain burger and fries option for the less adventurous patrons. (Food and drinks are available for purchase, they are not included in that FREE portion of the party, so don't forget your wallet)
And rumor has it, that in addition to all of that... we will have an incredible special guest there as well. How can you NOT be there??
In all honesty, the show is going to be FANTASTIC! It doesn't need a party on Opening Night for you to have fun... the party is simply going to be an extremely large mound of icing on top!
