The Ridgefield Playhouse is located at 80 E. Ridge Road, Ridgefield.  

The iconic ‘20s era sound coincides with F. Scott Fitzgerald’s great American novel “The Great Gatsby,” the book selected by The Ridgefield Playhouse in partnership with the Ridgefield Library for Ridgefield’s town-wide participation in “The Big Read.”

The Big Read is a National Endowment for the Arts program designed to revitalize the role of literature in American culture and encourage everyone to read. 

The Cab Calloway Orchestra, led by the original leader’s grandson, Calloway Brooks, delivers the same sizzling jazz sound and stage style of his grandfather, Cab Calloway.

No. 109 Cheese & Wine is offering a complimentary wine tasting and artists' reception from 6:30 p.m. to 7:15 p.m.

Tickets are $38. To order tickets, call the box office at (203) 438-5795 or order online here.
