Event Details

Calling all adventurers! Calling all first-class passengers!

Calling all swashbucklers, stowaways, and aquatic life!

Join Rude Mechs for a nautical party of titanic dimensions as they launch their 15th season of making thoroughly modern theatre. This year’s fundraiser to benefit these hardworking deck-swabbers will feature sparkling entertainment, marvelous hors d'oeuvres for your sea-sharpened appetite, and hostess Rebecca Havemeyer in dramatic aqua-lighting. To ensure your see-worthiness, come dressed for the gay relaxation of an ocean voyage.

You will enjoy every minute of these carefree, glorious hours as you visit exotic destinations, exchange your coins for booty at our matchless Silent and Live Auctions, experience gustatory delight provided at every port by Leilah Stewart Catering, test your sea legs to the tidal rhythms of DJ Graham “Poseidon” Reynolds, and catch Life Preservers, the signature drink slung all night by our fine friends from the side bar. So mark your calendars for a night to remember with joy, to speak of with pride.

All proceeds benefit Rude Mechs and everything that goes on at The Off Center!
