Ensemble Theatre Company of Santa Barbara It's that time again - MARTINI NIGHT AT THE THEATRE!

Ensemble Theatre Company is pleased to welcom...e back the multi-talented Ms Zimbalist, who last appeared at ETC in the 2006 production of The Memory of Water. Perhaps best known for her starring role in the 1980’s television hit, “Remington Steele” with Pierce Brosnan.

8:00 pm - TEA AT FIVE

Price: $30 including performance and complimentary martini's

MAKE SURE TO MENTION FACEBOOK OR MARTINI NIGHT TO GET THIS DISCOUNT!!!


TEA AT FIVE:
Based on Hepburn’s book Me: Stories of My Life, Tea at Five is an intimate and unforgettable trip down memory lane via Broadway and the golden age of Hollywood. The play opens in 1938 as Hepburn, despite having appeared on Broadway and garnering her first Oscar, is being rejected for the part of Scarlet O’Hara in Gone with the Wind. Set in her beloved Connecticut home, a young Hepburn reflects on her turbulent childhood, her early education and her start in show business. The play then advances 40 years as Hepburn, now 76 and afflicted with Parkinson’s, reflects on the triumphs of her career and her heart-breaking romance with Spencer Tracy. With insight, warmth and humor, Tea at Five promises to be a wonderful theatrical event for the holiday season.

Time:6:45PM Friday, December 11th
Location:Alhecama Theatre - Behind Playa Azul
