Our performances have a start time of 7:30 pm, with live music preshow 15 minutes earlier. Meal options (dinner and dessert pies) are included in the ticket price for this event, with craft beer and quality wines available for purchase. No outside food and drink are permitted. Doors will open at 7:00 pm. Dinner will be served beginning at 7:15 pm, and dessert pies will be delivered during intermission. Seating is available in metal restaurant chairs and is especially tight compared to our other venues given the space and capacity. Parking is available in the Westwood Shopping Center parking lot. Patrons should expect stairs or a walking ramp. Full restroom facilities are available, with a highly limited number of commodes, resulting in moderate-to-long lines queuing up before the show and during intermission.
