​Peterborough Players
Backstage (from Home)Party

In celebration of our "Fauxpening Night"

Available online starting June 17th at 7:30pm

Just because we can't gather for opening night this year doesn't mean that we can't party!

The Players Backstage Party will be a little like if a zoom cocktail party and a talkback had a baby... we're going to gather a group of some of your favorite Players (via zoom from home, of course!) to celebrate and answer your Players' questions. While this party won't be streaming live, we promise it will be lively!
​

How can you join in the fun?
​
​Lots of ways! 

  • Tune in to our Facebook page, YouTube channel, or our website anytime after June 17th at 7:30pm to watch the video and see if your question gets answered!

  • Chat along with the fun between 7:30-8:30pm EST on June 17th on our Facebook or Instagram pages. 

  • Put on some snazzy duds (send us a snap on social, if you'd like!) and raise a glass to toast what would have been your Peterborough Players Summer 2020 Opening Night!

Watch our eblasts and our social media channels for more details, coming soon!

Cocktail of the Evening: Sam's Sacher Torte Martini

For those of you who'd like to sip along, our mistress of mixology (and fabulous costume designer!) Sam Fleming has created this cocktail inspired by what would have been our opening show, Last Call (Bernstein and von Karajan at the Sacher Hotel). The Sacher Hotel is known for its Sacher Tortes. Enjoy one in a glass!
​
The pictures below show shot glass measurements. If you don’t have shot glasses: 
2tbsp chocolate liqueur in the bottom of the glass
3 tbsp apricot Brandy layered in next 
4 tbsp apricot infused vodka on the top

If you're feeling sassy, Sam suggests making a bit of apricot infused vodka (she used dried and fresh apricots...), then popping them in a blender to get a bit of a puree for the bottom of the glass. As Sam says, "for levity" :) She also dresses up the glass with stripes of chocolate sauce.  So delicious!​
