An Evening with Gaelic Storm

State Theatre, 305 S. Main Street

After nearly two decades and more than 3,000 live shows, Gaelic Storm — the chart-topping, multi-national Celtic band — is looking sharper than ever with their latest release, Matching Sweaters. The new album mixes traditional Irish music with modern influences, creating a sound that’s as wide-ranging as the band’s own audience.

The Library of Congress Packard Campus Theatre presents “Ruggles of Red Gap”

Saturday, June 25, 2016 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Library of Congress Packard Campus Theater, 19053 Mt. Pony Rd.
Culpeper, VA 22701 United States

Charles Laughton, known for such serious roles as Emperor Nero, King Henry XIII and later as the 1935 Captain Bligh, takes on comedy in this tale of an English manservant won in a poker game by American Charlie Ruggles, a member of Red Gap, Washington’s extremely small social elite. Laughton, in understated valet fashion, worriedly responds: “North America, my lord. Quite an untamed country I understand.” However, once in America, he finds not uncouth backwoodsmen, but rather a more egalitarian society that soon has Laughton reciting the Gettysburg Address, catching the American spirit and becoming a successful businessman. Aided by comedy stalwarts ZaSu Pitts, Mary Boland and Roland Young, Laughton really shows his acting range and pulls off comedy directed by Leo McCarey perfectly. “Ruggles of Red Gap” was named to the National Film Registry in 2014. Free, at the Library of Congress Packard Campus Theater located at 19053 Mt. Pony Rd. in Culpeper, VA. No reservations required. For more information, call 202-707- 9994.

Charlottesville, VA 22903 United States
 Gilbert & Sullivan’s musical theater masterpiece tells the story of young Frederic, who on the eve of his 21st birthday, looks forward to breaking the bonds of his indentured servitude, only to be foiled by a leap year birthday technicality and an overdeveloped sense of duty that keeps him in their delightfully chaotic employ.  This is a timeless pirate tale for all ages – including swashbuckling hijinks, clueless cops, frolicking maidens, and a famously bumbling Major General. Libretto by W.S. Gilbert and Music by Arthur Sullivan, Directed by Colleen Kelly.
Times to be announced.

Beer, Bourbon, Bacon and Beyond Dinner

Thursday, June 30, 2016 @ 6:30 pm - 9:30 pm
The New Bridge Wine Bar & Restaurant, 29 Main Street
Warrenton, 20186

We are collaborating with Heritage Brewing, Catoctin Creek Distilling Company and Whiffletree Farm to bring you a twist on our pairing dinners. Instead of a wine-paired dinner, we will be pairing distilled spirits and craft beer with recipes of all things pork (of course, that means some bacon!)

Yes, we know that the spirits from Catoctin Creek are technically whiskey. The name of the event could be misleading, but we liked the alliteration of it! Forgive us!

This is a celebration of sustainable, locally-sourced and organic production methods from farms, breweries and distilleries.

Whiffletree Farm uses farming methods that create the best environment for it’s animals, improves the fertility of the land, and results in the most nutritious meat and eggs for customers. Their beef cattle are 100% grass fed. Turkeys, broiler chickens, pigs, and laying hens live outdoors and are given feed without any genetically modified ingredients.

Heritage Brewing uses 100% Organic base malts and 92% of all ingredients are either organic or locally sourced.

Catoctin Creek Organic Roundstone Rye® is one of the few organic whiskeys in the entire world!

Did you know that Heritage Brewing Amber Ale is aged in Catoctin Creek Distilling Company rye whiskey barrels? How’s that for tying it all together?

The menu is inspired by the book, Beyond Bacon: Paleo Recipes that Respect the Whole Hog by PaleoParents http://paleoparents.com/

Like, share, click Interested or Going and invite others to this fun and informative paired dinner!

Price is $80/ person for spectacular responsibly and locally-sourced 5-course beer, bourbon (Whisky), bacon and pork-centric menu! (excludes tax, gratuity and Eventbrite service fee)
