Saturday, May 30th | Nome Schoolhouse
Join us for an evening where "logic meets emotion" in the beautiful, historic atmosphere of the Nome Schoolhouse. We are thrilled to present a special dinner theater performance of Dancing Lessons, a funny, tender, and deeply human story about the unexpected connections that change our lives.
Enjoy a chef-curated meal followed by a professional production in our intimate theater setting. Whether you're a long-time theater lover or looking for a unique date night, this "unexpected romance" is the perfect way to spend a spring evening.
When an awkward but brilliant young man seeks help from a spirited Broadway dancer, a simple series of lessons turns into something neither of them expected. As two very different worlds collide, both must learn the hardest steps of all: trust, vulnerability, and love.
"Sometimes the person who changes your life is the one you never planned to meet."
