Shakespeare On The Vine Theatre Company's Annual Spring Gala To Support The Summer 2016 Production Of As You Like It Is April 23rd
Murphys, CA...After a significantly successful first season of wine and The Taming of the Shrew, the resident theatre company, Shakespeare on the Vine at Brice Station Vineyards in Murphys, CA will return for its second summer season. The troupe will present William Shakespeare's beloved comedy, As You Like this summer, and to start the season off, the company will celebrate with their annual spring gala.
"The success and scale of last summer's The Taming of the Shrew was possible because of the generous
support of Calaveras County residents and businesses," said, Tara Kayton, Producing Artistic Director of the
company. "We are thrilled to have the support of the Calaveras Community Foundation and other generous
sponsors, the commitment of professional artists from across the United States, and look forward to
providing professional classic theatre to the residents and tourists of Calaveras this season.”
The public is invited to the Spring Gala on Saturday, April 23, 2016 at Ayrael Vieux Winery located at 1690
Monge Road in Douglas Flat starting at 1:00pm. The French countryside picnic will serve delicious
cuisine provided by V Restaurant with multiple wine pairings. The silent auction promises to include
art, vacation packages, and beautiful gifts from all over California. The talented Jill Warren will play
music for the event and actors will be there to answer questions about the Theatre Company and season.
"The artwork of French painter Toulouse Lautrec has inspired this summer's 1900s French production of As
You Like It." Kayton said. "Brice Station will be transformed into a sultry cabaret where a live band will
serenade the audience as Shakespeare's play will wrestle with the delights of love, the malleability of the
human experience, and city life versus country life.”
The gala costs $75 and includes wine, food, and entertainment, with all proceeds supporting this summer’s
production of As You Like It. Information on the gala, As You Like It, and other ways to support can be found
