CALL Member Event: Dinner and Play- Sense and Sensibility


For CALL Members and Guests over the age of 50:

In the classic theater production, Sense and Sensibility, set in the early 1800s, in an era when women were totally dependent on the benevolence and generosity of men, sensible Elinor pines for the quiet, kind-hearted Edward Ferrars; the impulsive Marianne dreams of her romantic hero on horseback, John Willoughby.

Jessica Swale’s cleverly-written, fast-paced and delightful adaptation of Jane Austen’s novel follows the fortunes of the Dashwood sisters as, cheated of their inheritance by their selfish brother, they pursue their dreams.

We will enjoy a delicious dinner at the Chapel Undercroft before the play and enjoy a short lecture by the play director, Professor Debra Freeberg. The meal features rosemary roasted pork loin, topped with a gorgonzola cream sauce and served with parmesan mashed potatoes, fresh vegetables, salad, rolls, and tiramisu for dessert.


Following the dinner and lecture, it is just a short walk to the Gezon Theater where we will have the pleasure of watching one of Jane Austin's great period dramas, Sense and Sensibility.


Cost: $35 per person, includes dinner and play. Dinner is at 5:30 pm followed by the play at 7:30 pm.
If you have any dietary restrictions, please contact the CALL office.
