Pandora's Dream Productions


Welcome to Pandora's Dream Productions

Hello Friends,

What is Pandora's Dream?  

Pandora's Dream Productions will be a 501(c)3 tax-exempt corporation founded to establish a restaurant/dinner theater in Knoxville, TN.  The goal for Pandora's Dream is is to provide a space where people are drawn for more reasons than just the theatre (fine food, good drink, music) and then they can learn about the theatre as well

Pandora's Dream, Vania Smrkovski, and Kristi Stephens Lannon and her husband Patrick Lannon are hosting a backers' party Friday, June 18th at 7:30 PM.  The event will be held at a private residence and will be an evening of entertainment, food, and beverage.  Playwright and performance artist Kali Meister will present her original short scene "Episode One: Heal Thyself" with local actors Lisa Hatmaker and Carrie Booher.  Also, playwright and actor Harrison Young will present a scene from his in-process full-length play "Online Fighting".  There will be magic from Victor Agreda Jr. and his assistant Ashley Wallace and the vocal styling of performer Samantha Hatmaker.  

Tickets can be purchased online and it's a pay as much as you feel comfortable and can afford to pay for this fabulous night of top-notch entertainment--the money will be used to acquire the theatre's tax exempt status.  There is a suggested price of $10.00 to $50.00 for this spectacular night of theatre, fun, wine, food, magic, and song.  

Please buy tickets in advance of the show on line at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/114125. Seating is general admission, however you can contribute more by buying one of the higher priced tickets. Vania will be announcing the names of the larger donors unless requested otherwise.  Directions are posted on the website.  Help support new local theatre.  

I hope to see you all there.
