Ocean State Theatre Company (OSTC), currently celebrating its first full season in its new state-of-the-art theatre in Warwick, is proud to announce the continuation of their Piano Bar Series, which will be held following select evening performances of the company’s current production, the international hit, “The Diary of Anne Frank.”

Following select Friday and Saturday evening performances, the theatre’s lobby will be transformed into an intimate performance space, at which patrons will be entertained by cast members, OSTC alumni and staff members, while enjoying beverages and late night appetizers, which will be available for purchase from the theatre’s lobby bar.

The Post Show Piano Bar Series is hosted by Mike Daniels, who audiences will remember from his portrayal of Snetsky in OSTC’s Inaugural Season production of “Fools,” as well as his appearances in Children’s Festival productions of “How I Became a Pirate,” “The Fabulous Fable Factory,” and “Schoolhouse Rock Live!” Musical accompaniment will be provided by local musicians, Brittany Lyn Dyer and Esther Zabinski.

The Post Show Piano Bar Series will be presented following Friday and Saturday evening performances of “The Diary of Anne Frank” on April 4, 5, 11 and 12. Attendance at the performance preceding the cabaret is not required. The lobby doors will open for the cabaret at 9:45 p.m. The theatre is located at 1245 Jefferson Boulevard, Warwick. Admission is free but seating is limited, so reservations are strongly recommended and can be made by calling 921-6800.
