Limited Seating in a listening room setting…

Enjoy an evening of music and stories with this talented and thoughtful singer/songwriter in an intimate space. We’ll serve you a scratch-made 3-course meal in between sets. This is a ticketed event, no walk-ins allowed.

Katie Henry is a singer, songwriter and pianist from Alma, Wisconsin, creating music that invites listeners into moments of stillness and reflection. Her work centers on delicate, melody-driven compositions and restrained arrangements. Valuing subtlety as much as expression, she aims, through her music, to create a calm, reflective space, grounded in sincerity and connection. 

Strongly influenced by the sound of 2004 Sia, Gungor, and The Brilliance, Katie’s style has been described as “chamber pop” - modern music with a classical twist.

For over 15 years, Katie has been writing, arranging, and performing with a wide variety of musicians and musical projects, both nationally and internationally. You may have heard her work somewhere between composing music for Czech television shows (Labyrint Světa a Ráj Srdce) to touring to asylum seeker homes in Germany (Symphony of Nations) to backing up Frederick, the First at Icehouse in Minneapolis (Frederick, the First). Now you will find her closer to the front of the stage as she begins to release her own original music into the wild. 

Accompanied by the talented Cass Magpie it’s sure to be a thoughtfully entertaining evening!

DOORS OPEN AT 5PM for Cocktails and Social hour.

SHOW & DINNER BEGINS AT 6PM.

We ask that guests silence their phones and refrain from making any loud noises during performance time. Feel free to socialize before the show and during set breaks.

***We must sell a minimum of 20 seats for the show to go on. Commit and bring a friend! Buy your tickets early so that we may plan accordingly for the freshly made meal.***

It’s 1919, one year since the Great War, and the centennial birthday for Vanya and Vaska Kalderash, the famed fortune-telling twins of The Curious Carnival. Not everything looks like it will be fun and games though; rumor has it, not everyone is happy with the current ringmaster, Emeri Petrovic, and there are whispers of impossible feats outside the tents. And what of the gossip the circus is peddling something more than entertainment? This night is bound to be a showstopper, see the magic up close!

Written by Meagan Malone

Join us for an immersive evening of mystery and intrigue, mixed with delicious cocktails, scratch-made food and interesting company. This mystery will be led by Dan (in character of course) and we’ll be putting all of our creativity into transforming our space for a night that you’ll always remember!
