Death by Chocolate! What a Way to Go!

HCPAC logoPress release

If you have to go, could there be a better way? The Henderson County Performing Arts Center doesn’t think so. In fact, there will be two very special chocolaty ‘deaths’ awaiting those who want to immerse themselves in a total decadence.

The traditional chocolate holiday, St. Valentine’s Day, will be observed at HCPAC with Death by Chocolate, an evening of sweets and songs. The annual event is an opportunity for sweethearts to mix and mingle while listening to romantic torch songs amid an endless array of chocolate confections, including a chocolate fountain.

This event will be held Saturday, February 14th, from 8-9 p.m. for the first seating and 9:30 – 10:30 p.m. for the second. Attendees also have the opportunity to see the last performance of The 39 Steps on the Main Stage of the HCPAC Theatre Complex before going to the Black Box Stage for the after-performance set.
