Upcoming Events

 

Spend the afternoon brightening up the winter blahs with some socializing and lively rounds of BINGO!

 

Presented at the elegant Drury Lane Theatre in Oakbrook Terrace, IL, this Broadway worthy production of Mamma Mia! will have you laughing out loud and dancing in your seats with unforgettable music and a heart-warming story of Donna, an independent hotelier in the Greek Islands, who is preparing for her daughter’s wedding with the help of two old friends. Meanwhile Sophie, the spirited bride, has a plan. She secretly invites three men from her mother’s past in hope of meeting her real father and having him escort her down the aisle on her big day.

Prior to the performance, we’ll dine at the theater choosing from Grilled Chicken Breast with Marsala Sauce, Parmesan Crusted Flounder with Caper Beurre Blanc Sauce, or Crepe Florentine filled with artichoke and fontina cheese with Chablis Cream Sauce. Lunch will begin with Tomato Basil Soup and will include freshly baked bread with butter, chef’s choice of accompaniments, and a chocolate sundae for dessert. Beverage service will include coffee and hot and iced tea.

 

 

The tour will begin on Old World 3rd Street with an overview of Milwaukee’s German history and samples of cheese, sausage, and beer or root beer plus some shopping time. We’ll then travel by bus to the Historic Third Ward with a narration of Milwaukee’s Irish history and a visit to Milwaukee Public Market. Lunch will be family-style at a Polish or Serbian restaurant complete with green salad, cheese pierogi, mashed potatoes, sauerkraut, Polish sausage, pork cutlets, red cabbage, milk, tea, and soda. Back on the bus, we’ll continue the city tour along Milwaukee’s lakefront. Our last stop will be to Brady Street, Milwaukee’s Italian enclave, for cookies and shopping at Peter Sciortino’s bakery, and then a visit to Glorioso’s Deli for a demo in their test kitchen with - of course! - more shopping. Bring your personal coolers and shopping bags - there’s always room under the bus and in the overhead compartments for your purchases!!
