‘Dinner and a Show’ offered

PALESTINE — Once again Alan and Vickie Brunton, owners of Fig Tree Manor, are prepared to set the mood for opening night at the Texas Theater.

Chef Brunton has created a menu inspired by the East Coast setting of “Arsenic and Old Lace” and designed to please the most discriminating East Texas palate, a PCT news release said.

Beginning at 5:30 p.m. Friday, a meal of New England Clam Chowder, roast beef and vegetable medley and rhubarb pie will be served in this restored Victorian home. Guests may choose to enjoy a complimentary glass of wine from Sweet Dreams Winery with their dinner. Located on the banks of Old Town Palestine’s Wells Creek at 203 Erwin St., this bed and breakfast is a short walk to the theater. Tickets for “Dinner and a Show” are $30 and available only at Education Unlimited (903-723-8383).
