Parisian Night @ OPIA with Live Performances

Join us for cocktails at Opia, newly renovated and glamorous as ever!

At 7:30 PM we’ll present the premiere performance of the musical “Play the Music Softly” – it tells the story of a successful concert pianist, born and raised in Paris, through memory flashbacks during an interview given for Le Monde Magazine.

The performance will take place in the Opia Ballroom, separate from the Main Lounge.

While this event is free of charge, seating is limited. Anyone interested to see the performance should get a pass from the hostess upon arrival.

The rest of us will continue to enjoy drinks and conversation at the Main Lounge!

Hosted by Hanna & Raylette Smith

About Four Seasons:
Led by suave, European host-owners Alex von Bidder and Julian Niccolini Four Seasons Restaurant on East 52nd Street delivers superior service, first-class Continental cuisine to an urbane crowd that is considered “who’s who in the city”. The regulars tout lunching among “power players” in the Grill Room or dining in the Serene “pool Room” at night. Built on the philosophy that “less is more”, the Four Seasons is one of the most beautiful restaurants in the world. Designed by Mies Van der Rohe and Philip Johnson in 1959, the entire space is spectacular, but the window treatments are what really blew me away. Delicate chains repeatedly drape across each of the 30 foot tall window panes. They are lit from above and the a/c vents are at the base. The result is a gently shimmering, animated effect– a lovely kinetic compliment to the grand mahogany panels on the interior walls. And yes, it IS expensive – but guess what, you are worth it! Treat yourself!

Soft Shell Crabs ($8) to Sirloin Paillard, Herb Fries ($28)

How To Seduce Difficult Women is about bringing American men back to the roots of seduction, forged tirelessly throughout the centuries in France. Throughout the film, we witness how Philippe, a Frenchman, tries to teach a motley crew of clueless American men the wit and wisdom that it takes to charm difficult women. Despite his seduction course and how-to manual, we find out whether it is the master himself who needs the educating, or if he’s been able to keep his own game tight. The comedy also includes a taste of real-life NYC street interviews on romance, sex and seduction
