The Band’s Visit Thursday, November 14th - $106 per person Join the Department on Aging for a trip to Playhouse Square to see the production of “The Band’s Visit.” We will depart Chardon Senior Center (12555 Ravenwood, Chardon 44024) at 4:00pm, and then depart West Geauga Senior Center (12650 West G Plaza, Unit 4, Chesterland 44026) at 4:30pm for dinner at the Music Box Supper Club. The show begins at 7:30pm. We will return at approximately at 10:00pm (West Geauga) and 10:30pm (Chardon). “The Band’s Visit” was the winner of 10 Tony Awards, making it one of the most Tony-winning musicals in history. It was also the 2019 Grammy Awards® winner for Best Musical Theater Album. In this delightfully offbeat story, set in a town that’s way off the beaten path, a band of musicians arrive lost, out of the blue. Under the spell of the desert sky, and with beautiful music perfuming the air, the band brings the town to life in unexpected and tantalizing ways. Even the briefest visit can stay with you forever. Please choose one entrée for dinner at Music Box Supper Club. All entrées include a non-alcoholic beverage of choice, a small salad, and a delightful desert: 1. Seared Verlasso Salmon – Lemon beurre blanc, wild rice blend and asparagus 2. Braised Short Rib – Port wine reduction, mashed potatoes and asparagus 3. Chicken Parmigiana – Angel hair pasta tossed in garlic, olive oil and herbs 4. Vegetarian Option – Breaded Portobello mushroom with angel hair pasta tossed in garlic, olive oil and herbs This is a two-sneaker event. Must be able to climb on and off bus steps and walk a substantial distance through Playhouse Square.
