The Palace Theatre’s first Imagine event, titled “Experience Paris,” launches at 6 p.m. Tuesday on the Harman Stage at the downtown Stamford theater.
The Imagine events will offer meeting and event planners ”“ as well as their clients and guests ”“ staged experiences that are “exciting, luxurious and affordably priced,” according to a statement from the theater. Whether a client wants to create an experience set in Paris, Venice, Gatsby”™s mansion or some other exclusive locale, it can be achieved on the Palace”™s larger-than-Broadway stage, the statement said.
“We can do things on this stage that you simply can”™t do in a hotel ballroom,” said Palace Artistic Director BT McNicholl. “We can change scenery, fly people through the air, you name it. There is no other venue that can create the immersive magic of the theater like we can.”
The 1,600-seat theater bills itself as “the only venue in the area that can offer dreamlike surround-sound and ambient experiences.”
“Experience Paris will reveal a custom-designed Broadway backdrop and a finely-detailed event that will transform the stage and transport the guests to a setting in the heart of Paris, along the Seine River and under the Eiffel Tower,” the theater press release for the event said. “Guests will experience and savor Parisian music, foods, beverages and expert service ”“ much like they would find in Europe on any given night.”
