Introducing the seasonal mocktail at Topeka Performing Arts Center. This season's sipper is a blackberry shrub cut with lemon and a coconut foam. It's got the flavors of blackberry w**e and it's good for you! 🖤

Enjoy one of these delicious drinks when you enjoy a show at TPAC. The first show of the fall season is Shakespeare's Measure for Measure, open September 18, 19, and 20! Attendees are invited to wear their roaring 20's art deco attire and enjoy the black box theatre experience downstairs in the Hussey Playhouse! See TPAC's newly renovated space turned into a speakeasy, night club experience. It's going to be a roar! 🎷
