Rodgers Theatre, Inc. invites patrons to get spooky and show their support at the Sixth Annual Restore the Rodgers Banquet on Oct. 20.
“This is our main fundraiser for the year for the Rodgers, so we encourage everyone to come out and help us,” said Director Wally Duncan.
The event will be held at the Black River Coliseum. Festivities kick off with a social hour at 6 p.m. followed by dinner from Tasteful Creations at 7 p.m. Guests can buy and win goodies from local businesses, and those who embrace the Halloween spirit will be in the running for a prize.
“We’ll have a prize for best costume and several items to raffle. We have some very nice auction items this year,” Duncan noted. He added costumes are not required, but, “It is a Halloween party.”
Attendees will also hear updates on the ongoing restoration of the historic Rodgers Theatre.
Live music will be performed by The Millstones and the night’s featured entertainers are The Dance Studio in Poplar Bluff.
Tickets are $30 per person if purchased in advance and $40 at the door. Tickets are available at the Greater Poplar Bluff Area Chamber of Commerce, Duncan Law Firm or eventbrite.com, and by calling the Rodgers at 573-326-4131.
