"Titanic - |
"It was a
brilliant crowd. Jewels flashed from the gowns of the women. The
orchestra played popular music. It was a rare gathering of
beautiful women and splendid men.” (First class passenger, Mrs. Jacques Futrelle) |

Ascend the staircase to the domed ballroom. Be greeted by the Captain and his lady. You are here to enjoy the memory of the most glamorous, most elegant ship afloat, the Titanic. | ||
On Saturday, February 28th, step back in time to the Edwardian era and enter the world of the Survivors' Ball. | ||
Professional caterer, Cindy Madsen, has created a menu of gustatory delight. As near as possible, a true Edwardian extravagance of seven courses will unveil itself before you. Entr’actes will entertain. The Ragtime Waltz Orchestra will play all the “popular music” of the day. Phil Wilkinson is leading a grand troupe of thirteen. A delectable dessert buffet will tempt you. This will be the event of the year, and you are invited to flaunt your finery in a sophisticated swirl. |

“Inside this
floating palace that spring evening in 1912, warmth and lights,
the hum of voices, the gay lilt of a German waltz—the unheeding
sounds of small world bent on pleasure.” |
