Gloucester Stage is proud to partner with this summer, presenting four specialty cocktails across the whole Season 🍸!

This June, stop by Oak to Ember before or after the show to try The Last Word. A classic Prohibition-era cocktail, The Last Word combines gin, Green Chartreuse, fresh lime juice, and maraschino liqueur in perfect balance. Bright, herbal, and tart, it’s a bold but elegant drink that fits the spirit of spirited debate at the heart of the play.
