WHY Celebrate 20 years of dramatic growth with Mudlark Theater

Join us at Mudlark Theater's event of the year! You'll enjoy a sparkling evening full of friends, entertainment, delicious bites, open bar, signature cocktail, complimentary childcare, and the chance to help Mudlark continue its mission of inclusion and dramatic growth for all. 

ATTIRE Cocktail attire, but add anything that helps you sparkle and shine! Think sequins, mirrors, lights, etc. 

CHILDCARE Larkabout tickets include free onsite childcare! You will receive a form to sign up after you purchase your tickets. You can also sign up here right now!

ABOUT OUR THEME Our Larkabout theme, Light Up the Night, was inspired by interviews with the Mudlark community, board members, and alumni. We repeatedly heard people say  “My kid just lit up,” or “I saw that kid light up!” and knew instantly that this was the heart of what we do and what we wanted to celebrate. We're taking that spark of joy and inspiration and building an event full of light, sparkle, glitter, joy—and, of course, raising funds to continue Mudlark's mission of inclusion and dramatic growth for all.
