Psst… got a password? Good. You’re in!

Puttin’ on the Ritz is going underground, or at least behind the gates of the magnificently renovated swanky 1923 estate of King Camp Gillette, the genius who turned the safety razor into a revolution - for one scandalously glamorous night.

We’re talking flappers flashing fringe, gents in suits sharp enough to slice a tomato and more bubbly than a bootlegger’s bathtub. A hot jazz DJ will keep the joint jumpin’, a slick-fingered illusionist will make you question your eyesight and a gypsy tarot queen will spill the beans on your fate.

Sip on Moonshine cocktails and Bee’ s Knee’s delights while feasting like the upper crust on a delectable vintage buffet -  flaky pastries stuffed with Chicken a la King, crunchy Waldorf salad and plenty more tasty treats.  And don’t skip the Chartreuse jelly shots - they’ll make you giggle like you just dodged a raid!

Dress in 1920s style with lots of sparkle, keep your hat tipped low, and remember, what happens in the speakeasy, well you know the rest... Now grab your coat, slick back your hair and meet us where the fizz flows ‘til the cops come a knockin’.
