Tickets are going fast for the Golden Chain Theatre’s Feb. 14-16, one weekend only performance, of the interactive, comedy dinner-show, Contempt of Court, by David Landau. 
This play is a “typical night at Judge Judy’s Peoples Night Court, where audience members become plaintiffs, defendants, witnesses, and jury in some of the most outlandishly funny lawsuits ever to double-cross the bench.”
Making her GCT directorial debut, Jamie Letwinch, says, “This is going to be a rollercoaster of cases with fly-by-the-seat-of-their-pants lawyers, crazy witnesses and a tough judge who takes no BS. Guests can prepare for a wild night of court.” 
Show attendees will have the opportunity to vote “GUILTY/NOT GUILTY” on juror ballot sheets to determine the outcome of each case, with one lucky patron winning a bottle of wine.
No need to order in this court, GCT has it covered for you! Guests will be served a three-course meal by Any Occasion Events, featuring smoked tri-tip, fingerling potatoes, and seasonal vegetables, as well as salad and dessert. *Vegetarian and Gluten Free options are available by reservation with the box office.
Cocktail hour will be at 6:00 p.m. with the show starting at 7:00 p.m. Please note, this is a no host bar. Tickets: Tickets are $47.50 per person and may be purchased online at www.goldenchaintheatre.org or by calling the box office at (559) 683-7112.
