Guild Hall of East Hampton

We begin every Game Night with Happy Salmon and as you can see it’s a lot of fun! Tonight at 6pm Game Master Noah Salaway leads us through this month’s game. “Monikers is pretty simple: get your friends to guess the name on the card. Each team has 60 seconds to get through as many weird names as they can. In the first round, you can say anything you want but the card name. In the second, you can only use one word. And in the third, you can’t say anything at all - just charades. The same cards are used in each round, so by the end of the game, you’ve made a bunch of hilarious jokes together.” Don’t miss this hysterical night of fun for ages 17 and up with free snacks by @cavaniolasgourmetand your first free drink courtesy of @montaukbrewco 😎 Proudly sponsored by @rima.ryan.team The Rima + Ryan Team @douglaselliman ❤️ Tickets at guildhall.org #thisisguildhall

In recent years The Met has relaxed its longstanding policy against encores - and it’s a great thing they have! This past Thursday, during a performance of “La Fille du Régiment” the tenor Javier Camarena effortlessly belted nine high C’s to uproarious applause. The audience didn't stop clapping and shouting “bravo!” and “encore!” until Javier belted out the aria one more time complete with 9 more high C’s to appease opera fans. Will lighting strike twice this Saturday during our live broadcast?

An epic night of Broadway with KING KONG is the final item in our Holiday Auction ending January 3rd! Head over to guildhall.org/charity-auction/ or search “Guild Hall” at charitybuzz.com to check out all of our items. The epic modern myth comes alive on Broadway through an innovative mix of animatronics, puppetry, music and stagecraft! It’s 1931, (the year Guild Hall first opened its doors) the world is in the grip of the Great Depression, and New York City is a place of pressure, of desperation, but also of hope. Enter Ann Darrow, a fearless young actress with a will of steel and dreams that reach as high as the just-completed Empire State Building. After a brutal struggle just to stay on her feet, Ann finds her big break in the form of Carl Denham, a fast-talking filmmaker who promises to make her the star of his next big adventure movie. Throwing caution to the winds, she joins Carl on a voyage to the mysterious Skull Island. There, they encounter a wonder more astonishing than they could have possibly imagined: a 20-foot-tall, 2,000-pound ape known only as Kong. To her surprise, Ann finds an unexpected kindred spirit in this magnificent, untamable creature. But when Carl hatches a plan to capture Kong and display him to the New York masses, she’s faced with a terrible choice. Will Ann follow the call of her own ambition? Or can she find the strength to stand up for what’s right? Roaring with heart-pounding action, KING KONG is a gripping and spectacular story of unlikely friendship, unshakable courage, and breaking free from the cages others put us in. Directed and choreographed by Olivier winner Drew McOnie, KING KONG features an electrifying new score by Marius de Vries (La La Land) and Eddie Perfect (Beetlejuice The Musical), and a book by Jack Thorne, the Tony® and Olivier Award-winning writer of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Don’t miss this exhilarating, emotional encounter with a legend that’s always been too big to contain.

GET YOUR GAME ON. This Monday at Guild Hall Game Night we will be playing Hanabi, designed by Antoine Bauza. Hanabi is a simple cooperative card game in which players work together to put on an amazing fireworks show. Practically, this means playing colored cards consecutively onto piles with your teammates. The trick with Hanabi, however, is that every player holds their hand of cards outwards, so that every player except themselves can see their own hand. Thus, players must work together to give clues to each other about what cards are in whose hand. Hanabi is a simple game that, with a minor twist, becomes endlessly enjoyable and totally unique. Game Master Noah Salaway will guide you through the game while you enjoy free snacks and your first drink donated by Carissas Bakery Cavaniola's Gourmet Montauk Brewing Company (Ages 16 and up only) Get your $10 ticket today! https://www.guildhall.org/events/guild-hall-game-night-6/
