We’re still on for tonight! Don’t miss out on Blue Moon with the Plaid Marquee. 🌙🌃

🌙✨ Step into a night of theatre, music, and fading stardom… ✨🌙

Blue Moon invites you behind the curtain 🎭 into a single, unforgettable evening in 1943 — where brilliance, heartbreak, and legacy collide under the glow of stage lights.

💙🌌 At the center is Lorenz Hart, a once-celebrated lyricist now watching from the sidelines as his former partner rises to dazzling new heights. As champagne flows and applause echoes 🥂👏, Hart holds court at Sardi’s — charming, unraveling, and reflecting on love, art, and what it means to be remembered.

🎶⭐ With a mesmerizing performance by Ethan Hawke, this intimate, real-time story captures the magic of theatre and the quiet ache of being left behind — where every line feels like a monologue, and every moment lingers like a final note.
