Forbidden Fruit(s): A Prohibition Extravaganza

Drink wine and enjoy new work at France 44!

Join us as we take you back to the era of art deco and flapper girls, when alcohol and something called “homosexuality” were against the law, when people said words like “stool-pigeon” and “reefer” out loud using their mouths. That’s right, folks! We’re teaching Prohibition like it’s never been taught before: in an educational lecture-cum-theatrical experiment that would have been really helpful before the big AP test you took in high school.

This wine tasting / theater piece will feature an original script, live actors, and education provided by France 44's wine experts! Come sample historically relevant booze, frown at anachronistic jokes, and hear us say the word “pansy” at least five or six times. Presented by Commutator Collective, who also failed to teach you about phylloxera. Attendees will receive a mixed flight of seven wines, spirits, and cocktails, as well as snacks provided by the France 44 Cheese Shop.

Tickets must be reserved in advance. Participants must be 21 years old. Tickets are non-refundable. If you cannot attend a class you have registered for, registration is transferable to another France 44 class through Dojour.
