Hospice Care Plus is excited to announce a new fundraiser that combines Kentucky’s love for basketball with music, comedy, an auction, and great food.
On Friday, October 16th, Hospice Care Plus will host “Dueling Pianos & Big Blue Madness,” a new event at RT’s Cafe in Richmond. The fun begins at 7pm.
The night begins with Big Blue Madness (BBM) on the big screen, exclusively for RT’s audience, and an appetizer buffet. Following the BBM celebration, the high-energy, comedy, all request Dueling Piano Shows International will perform.
Throughout the evening, guests will also have the opportunity to bid on UK auction items.
Julie Hatfield, special events coordinator at Hospice, says the combination of BBM with the dueling piano show is destined to be a hit.
“There’s nothing more exciting than watching the Cats kick off a new season with BBM,” says Julie. “Then, with all that excitement and energy in the air, we’ll launch right into the dueling pianos. The Dueling Piano International show really involves the audience, so they became as much a part of the show as the entertainers.”
Learn more about the dueling piano show at www.duelingpianoshows.com. For those new to dueling piano parties, be sure to watch a few of the website’s videos.
Proceeds go to support Hospice Car Plus programs and services.
Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door and include the appetizer buffet, screening of Big Blue Madness, and the Dueling Piano show. To make reservations, contact Julie at hospice@hospicecp.org or 859-986-1500.
