A Toast to Prohibition

Celebrate the 103rd anniversary of Prohibition with flappers, gin fizz and a cabaret concert featuring “lost” speakeasy songs. From secret wine cellars and doctor-prescribed alcohol to Carrie Nation, destroying saloons with her hatchet: If it happened during Prohibition, someone wrote a song about it! Did you know that veterenarians could prescribe alcohol? Or that Al Capone was a songwriter? Grab a cocktail and toast some the quirkiest bits of American history. Featuring (forgotten) 1920s hits: “I Never Knew I Had a Wonderful Wife (Until The Town Went Dry)” and “Everybody Wants A Key To My Cellar.”

Starring Melanie Gall from Piaf and Brel: The Impossible Concert & Stitch in Time: A Knitting Cabaret. “A star in the making,” Broadway Baby  ★★★★★ Edmonton Journal ★★★★★ Arts Review Edinburgh
