We want to dance with you.
We want to drink with you.
We want to cuddle you in a corner where the lights are low.
This ain’t like all them other fancy-ass, semi-Austin, half-respectable, quarter-fun, boiled-chicken, fake-smile-selfie, cultural wastelands. We’re gonna throw an honest-to-God Party and have our friends there. You wanna be one? It’ll be a scene, you know, Elvis, Yul, other Kings you like – all mixed together in a party salad that’ll knock your gauntlets off. Come on!
Dancing, Drinking, Games, and Munching Like Kings
Your proud hostess, Her Royal Highness Rebecca “Hunka Hunka Burning Love” Havemeyer, will squire you through an evening of surprises & entertainments, foods & drinks all scored by the DJ stylings of award-winning band leader and composer Graham “Getting to Know You” Reynolds.
Love us Tender at our noble Silent Auction. Throw in on our fancy Raffle for a Trip for 2 to the Destination Of Your Dreams. Feast at the One Night in Bangkok, One Morning in Memphis Buffet. Belly up to the Jungle Room Bar (cash bar from the side bar) for the evening’s signature drink, the Rude Royale. Ride the Elvis Pelvis. Capture every moment with “photos” by Quick Draw Photo Booth. Or take a run at future moments with Tarot Card Readings by the granddaughters of Priscilla’s own psychic. Work up an appetite at the end-of-an-era Elvis/Yul/Henry VIII-style Dance Party (starts at 10:30) – There’s a Dance Off at 11:00 and then $5 Crepes at Midnight, created and served by the men of Rude Mechs wearing nothing but their chef’s aprons. Yes. Naked Crepes.
All proceeds benefit Rude Mechs and everything that goes on at The Off Center. Click here if you want to know more about our 20th Anniversary Season.
