a play by Eileen Atkins and a delightful BYOB dinner!
Saturday, February 11, 2017

What better way to celebrate Valentines Day than with the wicked repartee, razor-keen wit, poetry, and unabashed ardor of two gloriously free-thinking artistsVirginia Woolf and Vita Sackville-West. AND a delicious dinner!

Join us for our fourth annual Valentines Day Dinner Theatre at Websters Bookstore Café.

Look here Vita throw over your man, and well go to Hampton Court and dine on the river together and walk in the garden in the moonlight and come home late and have a bottle of wine and get tipsy, and Ill tell you all the things I have in my head, millions, myriads They wont stir by day, only by dark on the river. Think of that. Throw over your man, I say, and come. (V. Woolf)

The abiding friendship and fervent affair between Virginia Woolf, one of the great modern English language writers, and the dynamic Vita Sackville-West, writer and master garden designer, was heightened by their long correspondence.

These letters form the basis of Vita and Virginia.

With Elaine Meder-Wilgus as Virginia Woolf and Cynthia Mazzant as Vita Sackville-West, this production is a reprise of Tempests favorite Valentine to the State College area community.

Dinner prepared by Webster's Catering using organic, gluten-free ingredients, locally-sourced whenever possible. Select from entrees Fennel Crusted Salmon, Roasted Chicken, or Portabella Wellington (vegan). Include dessert/coffee. BYOB.
