Watch a classic movie inside a vintage theatre! The Palace began as a movie theatre in the 30s and we are bringing back one of the most popular classic love stories of all time – Casablanca. Wear your best vintage garb and be seated by ushers who will be dressed to the nines, take a photo at our photo booth and try your hand at some Casablanca trivia. Come early and enjoy dinner or Casablanca-inspired drinks at Wildfire Restaurant next door.
This production will be indoors in the Palace Theatre on the Springer Stage. There will be a 2 seat separation between groups and empty rows every other row. Masks are required, even when sitting in your seat.
