You bring the food and the Players will take care of everything else, down to the dessert forks!
Enjoy an evening filled with holiday spirit, dance to the tunes of the season, and relax knowing someone else is doing all the work while your participation is helping those in our community who need it most.
Heating, Electrical, and Gas prices have increased dramatically for all of us, yet many people living within our community are challenged to find food, shelter and clothing for their families. Please help us to help all of them by participating in our “No Show Dinner Theater’ event and know that every small effort and donation you make will go right to the people that truly need it.
The Walpole Players invite you to host your Holiday dinner with friends and family at the Helen Miller Theater in the Walpole Town Hall on Saturday, Dec. 10, from 7:00 to 9:00 PM (doors open at 6:30 pm). Tickets are $10 each or $50 for a table of six. One hundred percent of the proceeds from this event will be donated to Our Place Drop-in Center in Bellows Falls and The Fall Mountain Food Shelf.
The Players will provide everything but the food and drink: linens, dinnerware, wine glasses and silverware, on a beautifully set festive table. Dance under the lights to our holiday-inspired music, take a group photo on our cozy decorated stage, and enjoy a bite of scrumptious dessert donated by talented local bakers. You just need to dress up, bring your favorite food, beverages, and friends—the Players will handle all the set-up and clean-up!
No Show Theater means the stage will be dark, but it also means you can donate and be a no-show for this event! All private and business sponsors of $50 or more will be announced throughout the evening, advertised within the table centerpieces, and posted on The Walpole Players website.
Tickets can be purchased at Galloway Real Estate and Mascoma Savings Bank in Walpole. Only 20 tables are available for this one night event, so get yours soon because they will sell fast! If you purchase a table you will receive 6 tickets (room seating is limited to 160 people). If you can’t come to the event but wish to donate, you can do so on our website or by mailing a check made out to the Walpole Players to PO Box 951, Walpole, NH 03608.
For more information, please email us at walpoleplayers@gmail.com or call (603) 756-2535.
