The Queen's Feast Dinner & Madrigal at the Westside Shakespeare Festival
Advertisement
Immerse yourself in the world of Shakespeare at the Westside Shakespeare Festival, then follow your beautiful day with an amazing feast with Queen Elizabeth I and the Bard!
The Queen’s Feast is an interactive dining experience where guests can feel a part of a traditional Renaissance feast! Throughout the dinner, courses will be presented theatrically and accompanied by a traditional madrigal song performed by a quartet of singers. Queen Elizabeth I and her court will also be announced with great flourish, as well as special guests like William Shakespeare and his King's men! The Queen, of course, wants entertainment with her meal, so Master Shakespeare will recite some of his latest sonnets, a harpist will strum away beautiful music of the time, and other exciting acts will take place for the pleasure of the court.
Dressing of the time period (1594) is requested but not required. In the spirit of the gala, attendees are recommended to purchase small wooden coins at the start of the gala (pence/pounds) to reward and bribe actors during the show. An Elizabethan penny is worth $1, a shilling is worth $5, and a pound is $10.
Please note: this event will be socially distanced per CDC and state guidelines on the day of the event (see FAQ). As COVID-19 levels change from day to day, we cannot specify exactly how you will be seated at this time if you do not purchase a table. We will provide this information to you within three days of the event. The event will move forward in the most responsible way possible.
