Heroes & Villains Purim Party - For Young Professionals
Saturday, February 23, 2013 8:30pm
Do you think you have what it takes to be a hero... or a villain?
Step into a super-cool and super-secret lair tucked deep in Uptown, where you'll enjoy great music, delicious food and our signature Purim drinks from the wide open bar. Just be careful when sipping those Flamin' Hamans and Mordtinis -- drink too much and you just might reveal your true identity...
Come dressed as your favorite alter ego and see who wins the battle of naughty and nice. You might walk away with super prizes.
Sidekicks welcome.
