TAG Presents: Truman Capote's Black and White Ball
On 11 November 2016, we celebrate the 50th anniversary of Truman Capote's legendary Black and White Ball. Having taken place at the Plaza Hotel in November 1966, Truman's bash went down in history as the Party of the Century.
Those who were invited were dubbed "The Chosen People" and included everyone from Audrey Hepburn to the great Jackie O. Every movement made and every word spoken by guests ranging from Frank Sinatra to Andy Warhol were reported to the world by journalists from Vogue to the New York Times. Everyone who was anyone gathered together at the summons of the one and only Truman Capote.
The guests wore black and white, masks were mandatory, the champagne flowed all night, the Peter Duchin Orchestra played jazz standards, breakfast was served at midnight...
Join us as we recreate this iconic party - The dress code is black or white, masks are mandatory, there will be open bar, the Beantown Swing Orchestra will play jazz standards, and we will dance all night.
You may be assigned to portray a person from the event.
You may be given a mission.
