Dreamcatcher Hosts a Mother's Day Eve Gala Celebration, 5/11

Dreamcatcher Repertory Theatre, professional Theatre in Residence at the Oakes Center in Summit, is hosting their annual gala celebration on Saturday, May 11 at 5:30 pm at the Elks Lodge, 40 Maple Street in Summit. This year's gathering focuses on the important women in all of our lives, and provides a unique alternative or supplement to celebrating Mother's Day with Sunday brunch.

The evening will begin with cocktails and appetizers at 5:30 pm, followed by a catered dinner at 6:30. At 8:00 pm, the Dreamcatcher Resident Acting Company will perform an original cabaret entitled "Because I Said So!" which will feature songs and readings about moms. At 9:15, dessert will be served, and at 9:45, the winners of the silent auction will be announced. Tickets to the event may be purchased in two ways: for the entire evening ($100), which includes hors d'oeuvres, dinner, the cabaret performance, dessert and the silent auction, or for the performance, dessert and auction only ($30).

Dreamcatcher's annual gala helps to fund all of its artistic and outreach programming, including mainstage productions, improv comedy, new play readings, a holiday variety show, and outreach programming for students and seniors. It is also an opportunity for the audience and the company to gather in a social setting and celebrate the past year's work together.
