Be A Voyeur

If you're looking for a unique and extremely en-
tertaining way to spend an evening, here it is:
Harold's Pilgrims, a theater company out of Ohio,
has developed The Longford Legacy, performed at
Indian Village's the Castle, a historic mansion built
in the 19th century. With a buffet dinner served be-
tween acts (great for mingling -- you can discuss
what's going on), the play is portrayed in separate
scenes in various rooms of the mansion, with the
audience trailing from room to room, following the
character or storyline that is most intriguing. The
story chronicles the Longfords, a fictitious family
in the early 1930s, struggling to retain control of
the family fortune during the Depression era. 7:30
p.m. Thursdays, indefinitely. Group sales available.
$39.95/includes dinner. Reservations required. (888)
