The New Haven Collective

It's the time of year for drinking wellness teas. And ginger makes a natural ingredient to tea, especially during the colder months. Learn why ginger is revered as an invigorating tonic for many vital organs and functions such as digestion. Tastings include three ginger blends... green ginger mint, black ginger chai and herbal lemongrass ginger. Sweeteners are available if needed. Each tea is paired with a small dessert sample. Sign up only if you definitely plan to attend as spaces are limited. Masks required upon entering, then during the tasting social distance is maintained between participants.

*** The new date is March 20, 2021.*** The play/musical Girls Night is returning to the Shubert in New Haven. I’ve seen it and will see it again. Audience members can’t help but laugh, cry and even find themselves singing and dancing in the aisles as some of the most popular hit songs of the 80s and 90s make this musical a fan favorite! GIRLS NIGHT: THE MUSICAL has been thrilling audiences and earning raves from critics throughout North America since it began touring after its sensational Off-Broadway debut. This touching and hilarious ‘tell-it-like-it-is’ musical takes audiences on a journey into the lives of a group of female friends. Follow five friends as they visit their past, celebrate their present, and look to the future on a wild and hilarious night out… and you’ll recognize a bit of yourselves in every one of them! It is described as “Desperate Housewives meets Mamma Mia”(Applause Magazine), ”An infectious, exhilarating sense of intoxication (Hollywood Reporter) and “As funny and outrageous as Sex and the City!”(The Advocate). GIRLS NIGHT is bursting with energy and is packed with hits “Lady Marmalade,” “It’s Raining Men,” “Man I Feel Like A Woman,” “I Will Survive,” “We are Family” and many more. Tickets go on sale at 10am on January 10. No price is available yet. I can buy seats together if you PayPal me first. Please check the site periodically to see if a ticket price is available yet.
