RED BARN’S “BIG NIGHT OUT – THE PARTY” WILL FEATURE SOME BIG TIME TALENT

As Key West’s Red Barn Theatre steps into their remarkable 43rd consecutive season of professional theater in the southernmost city, they’ll be celebrating that milestone with one of their biggest parties ever and you’re invited.

“Big Night Out – The Party”, is shaping up to be one of the Red Barn’s grandest evenings and will feature special performances by some of Key West’s favorite musical stars, including Randy Roberts, Christine Mild, and Jim Rice.

Set for Sunday, January 15th, the festivities will run 6 – 9 pm at the Oldest House, 322 Duval Street in Key West. Tickets are available now at redbarntheatre.com/tickets.

“We’re known for giving great parties,” said Mimi McDonald, managing director of the Barn. “We’ll be in the new, extensively renovated Oldest House on Duval, and have some tasty drinks and food planned. We’re pulling out all the stops to make it a glittering theatre party.”

Providing the special entertainment for the evening will be a trio of musical stars. Key West star Randy Roberts will make an appearance, accompanied by pianist/arranger Jim Rice, as will Red Barn favorite Christine Mild, well-known for her performances as Patsy Cline in the popular “Always, Patsy Cline” productions at the theater.

“I’ll be doing some Patsy Cline teasers,” said Mild, “and lace in some other feel-good tunes that are fun and entertaining for that kind of event. But I’m really looking forward to also working up some things with Randy. We’ve been friends for years but have never had the chance to work together. It will be very special.”

“It will definitely be fun,” Roberts added. “We’ll have a good time.”

Destination Catering will be providing a tantalizing array of tapas-style small plates for the evening, and the Red Barn is providing an Open Bar for all attendees. In addition to the appearances by Roberts and Mild, music will be provided by theatrical music arranger Jim Rice.

A Silent Auction is also planned for partiers to peruse, which will include Staycation Packages, Restaurant Packages, and a special auction of a Mario Sanchez painting.

“Big Night Out – The Party” is the annual fundraiser for the Red Barn, one of the theater’s more important sources for the funding needed to continue providing the high-quality theater they do. Ticket sales to shows only provide a portion of the annual operating expenses, so evenings like this are important to the ongoing health of the theater.

“It’s a wonderful way to show your support,” said Michelle Chennault, a Red Barn Board member and chairperson of the Big Night Out planning committee, “and you’ll have a glamorous time as well. We look forward to entertaining you.”

The Red Barn Theatre is a 501.c.3 non-profit organization.
