The 'deliriously funny' theatrical ensemble [By The Mummers], recently heralded as 'a raft of comic knockouts' by Backstage, will team with Dylan's Candy Bar and Moonshine Clear Corn Whiskey for the first ever theatrical event at the candy wonderland. Gangsters & flappers alike will hit on all sixes when Prohibition! [By The Mummers] takes place on Saturday, December 3rd 2011, from 9-11pm… for One Night Only!

Hot off the heels of their successful run of BLOOD [By The Mummers] at the New York Musical Theatre Festival (NYMF), this collective of theatrical madmen & women set their sights on bringing their brand of original, extra-ordinary characters and stories to Events throughout the Tri-State area. Under the direction of Matt Harvey, Prohibition! [By The Mummers] marks their fifth event having previously teamed with the Brooklyn Animal Rescue Coalition, My Two Dogs Inc., the Sterling Renaissance Festival & the City of Oswego.

Dylan's dream of combining a love of candy and a passion for art became a reality back in 2001, when the first Dylan's Candy Bar opened for business in New York City at 3rd Ave. and East 60th Street. Since then Dylan has expanded her stores to include locations in Orlando, Houston and Roosevelt Field Mall and East Hampton, both in New York state. Dylan's Candy Bar carries over 5,000 kinds of candy, so you're sure to find your favorite.

Original MOONSHINE® Clear Corn Whiskey is hand-crafted from 100% estate-grown corn and distilled four times in a Prohibition-era copper pot still – in the same authentic tradition that moonshine has been made for hundreds of years. At 80 proof, their all-natural, gluten-free proprietary recipe is charcoal-filtered for the highest purity, quality and taste. A truly versatile spirit, SHINE can be enjoyed neat, on the rocks and in ?a wide range of mixed cocktails. Prohibition! [By The Mummers] will feature Dylan's Candy Bar inspired drinks The Presbyterian, Capone's Manhattan Moonshine, & The Jump Jivin' Japalac.
