Children dream of sugarplums, men dream of turkey legs. So, rest not ye merry gentlemen, it's time for the third annual Ye Holiday Feaste at Californos.
The Medieval-themed event takes over the Westport restaurant on Saturday from 7 to 10 p.m. The annual benefit for the Just Off Broadway Theatre obeys some unique rules. Your status during the evening is directly tied to your contribution. You're either part of the rabble ($25), gentry ($50), nobility ($75), or royalty ($100), so expect barbs or patronage depending on your generosity.
In addition to the feast, a myriad of entertainers are scheduled to perform
throughout the night. You'll see magic, fire-eating, sword-eating and a
court jester, as well as the general bawdiness one typically associates
with the Renaissance world.
An hour of cocktails and hors d'ouerves will be followed by dinner at 8 p.m. The evening ends with an auction of artisan items.
