ATTENTION FLAPPERS AND FELLAS!

This throwback to the Roaring Twenties will be the cat’s pajamas: a swanky soirée with giggle water, hot jazz, and all the trimmings.

July 18 at the Chartiers Room is going be the bee’s knees, and you’d be a flat tire to miss it. Dinner’s served at 6 p.m. sharp, then cut a rug to live jazz for the rest of the night.

The Night: The speakeasy’s secret doors open at 5 p.m., with the right password. Dinner is served at 6 p.m., and dancing goes on until 11 p.m.

The Tradition: Bridgeville has long marked each 25-year-milestone with a dinner and dance — a chance to get the whole town in one room. This year’s 1920s theme is a deliberate one: a colorful, indulgent era of excitement and rebellious passion, brought to life with glamour, flamboyant style, and sultry jazz.

The Food: Dinner is catered by PJ Deli.

The Drinks: Each ticket includes two complimentary specialty drinks. After that, it’s a cash bar.

The Music: The Rick Purcell Trio will be on stage all night, playing live jazz. Plan to dance.

The Auction: A Chinese auction featuring items donated by local businesses will be open for bidding throughout the evening.

The “Fountain of Cheer”: A raffle stocked with donated bottles — a nod to the Prohibition-era inspiration behind the night.

The Costumes: Best-dressed guests will take home costume prizes.

Tickets $50 and available online.
