A Night at the Museum

Saturday, April 1, 2023
8pm Eastern

Metropolitan Waterworks Museum

A Night at the Museum is a one-of-a-kind night of music and exploration. To have the best experience there are some things you should know:

Performances will take place in two locations, denoted by colored lights:
1. the “purple stage” in the center of the museum between the two engines
2. the “orange stage” at the front of the museum
You can see where the next piece will be by checking the program order below!
No seat will be perfect for every piece, so move around and explore the space as the night progresses.
There are not quite enough seats for everyone to sit for each piece. If you end up standing, don’t worry, the length of each selection is noted below.
To grab a drink at the bar you’ll need a drink ticket (a Boston regulation), available for purchase right next to the bar.
Please tip your bartender!
Also available for purchase are Phoenix whiskey glasses and t-shirts.
