Evening at the Playhouse to benefit Village Food Project

 The crisp and colorful month of October is upon us, and as we approach Halloween, many of us begin to feel a craving for a bit of intrigue and suspense. To satisfy this need for mystery and to raise money to provide assistance to local families in crisis, The Village Food Project would like to invite you to a special performance of “Sherlock Holmes: The Final Adventure” at Huntington Playhouse on Sunday, Oct. 23, at 2 p.m.

Let us set the scene, courtesy of Huntington Playhouse: The world’s greatest detective has seemingly reached the end of his remarkable career when a case presents itself that is too tempting to ignore: The King of Bohemia is about to be blackmailed by a notorious photograph, and the woman at the heart of this crime is the famous opera singer, Irene Adler.  With his trusted companion, Doctor Watson, at his side, Sherlock Holmes pursues first the case, and then the affections of Miss Adler – and in doing so, marches right into the lair of his longtime adversary, that malevolent genius of crime: Professor Moriarty.

Tickets are $25 per person. A reception will immediately follow the play, featuring wine, cheese and tasty samples of favorite Village Food Project recipes. Due to the generosity of Jim and Linda Potter, all proceeds from ticket sales go directly to The Village Food Project to help this volunteer organization continue their mission of cooking and delivering nutritious and delicious meals to cancer patients and their families in Bay Village.

Seats are limited. Reserve your tickets today by contacting Jean Pell at jpell31955@aol.com or 440-808-8984 or by making your check payable to The Village Food Project and mailing it to P.O. Box 40023, Bay Village, OH 44140.

Information about The Village Food Project and how to donate, volunteer or sign up for its services is available on the organization’s website at villagefoodproject.com.
