The Güt Life! Christmas with the Yoders and Nick January 1-8
Carlisle Inn is delighted to offer live entertainment for this holiday season. The Güt Life! Christmas with the Yoders and Nick! is playing January 1 through 8, on stage at Carlisle Inn. Here's a sneak peek: Simon and Eliza Yoder never expected the special guest that showed up at their front door on Christmas Eve. They didn't even know the man in the red suit knew where they lived. And, trust us, the man was just as surprised as they were! A collision of traditions, a clash of cultures, and a stranger in search of far more than just an address, this new Yuletide comedy will both entertain and inspire you. The Güt Life! Christmas with the Yoders and Nick! is ninety minutes of laughter, stories, songs, and everything in between!

SOUVENIR - Jan. 21-23, 26-30 at 7:30pm Jan. 24 & 31 at 2pm
SOUVENIR, by turns hilarious and poignant, tells the story of Florence Foster Jenkins through the eyes of her accompanist, Cosme McMoon. Eyewitness accounts of their concerts vary so wildly it is almost impossible now to separate fact from gossip. Hence this fictional “biography,” in which we follow the story of their partnership from its earliest days to their infamous concert in Carnegie Hall and its aftermath. With each new imagined triumph Florence’s confidence soars. Faced with her boundless certainty, Cosme comes to revise his attitude, not only towards her singing but to the very meaning of music itself. A musical odd-couple for the ages.
