 Join your MIT friends at one of the area’s premier summer events, The Brandywiners’ annual production at Longwood Gardens' outdoor amphitheater. This year they are performing the classic romantic comedy Guys and Dolls. The Club has its own permanent block of seats (we chose the best in the house). They will sell out quickly so send your reservation soon! If our theater block is sold out, unless you request otherwise in the registration, we will do our best to get the best seats still available. Your tickets will be mailed in late July.
As a bonus, your ticket also gives you a full day admission to Longwood Gardens on Saturday (itself a $16 value).
We also have optional dinner reservations at the Longwood Gardens Terrace Restaurant for their Terrace Barbeque Buffet (menu below) before the play. The buffet will be served in their huge outdoor tent -- a beautiful setting that was very well received last year. This is a fine opportunity to enjoy an informal summer meal, relax together after seeing the gardens and meet other MIT people before the play. The additional cost for the dinner is $31 per person.
So, all together we are providing a full day to peruse Longwood Gardens, a relaxing barbeque dinner together, and of course the Brandywiners performance!
