Called “a jewel in this community” by the Lima News, the Lima Symphony Orchestra has been consistently performing inspiring classical performances since 1953. In "From Russia with Love," the symphony’s talented soundsmiths will recreate Tchaikovsky’s Pathetique and Sergei Prokofiev‘s Violin Concerto no. 1, anchored by the solo stylings of acclaimed Bulgarian violinist Alexandrina Boyanova. "The Power of Percussion" will kinetically present a collection of classic choral music, as well as up-and-coming percussion soloist Lisa Pegher, who can rhythmically tap on everything from the drums to Danny DeVito’s head. To reserve seats, concertgoers can call or stop by the box office with their Groupons Monday–Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Check out the seating chart here. All seats are open to all ticket buyers on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations are required.
It's a good idea to arrive early at Movie Tavern, and not only if you hate missing the opening credits. Early birds can peruse the extensive menu of chef-crafted American cuisine, from kobe beef sliders to pizza and sandwiches. But even after the show begins, the snacks keep coming. Unobtrusive servers slip in during the show to deliver orders, and can be called on for more drinks or dessert with the push of a button. Guests can even sip margaritas or signature cocktails at the full bar before heading in to the theater. The family-friendly establishment also serves finger food for kiddies.
As for the entertainment, audiences get to enjoy all-digital presentations of first-run films any day of the week, plus Retro Cinema every Wednesday morning at 11:30 a.m. as well as Tuesday and Thursday evenings at 7:30 p.m. Audiences also benefit from Movie Tavern's membership program. Anyone can sign up for free online to receive one free bag of popcorn, plus a free ticket every year on their birthday, special offers, movie news, and invites to screenings and other special events.
American Style Ballroom's founder Patric Didier has light tripped his way to a couple of Indiana Classic wins, a few gigs dancing for the Brian Setzer Orchestra, and several commercial appearances. When he's not coaching professional competitive dancers, Patric teaches budding dancers of all skill levels how to gracefully hit the floor. Along with co-owner Jeanne Cross—a veteran instructor with more than 30 years of experience—the light-footed duo and its team lead private and group lessons at the studio's two locations. Students of any skill level pound the boards in styles ranging from raucous swing to elegant Viennese waltz to the slightly less elegant Viennese waltz on stilts. American Style Ballroom also hosts practice dance parties to give guests a chance to air out their new moves.
Resting in the shadow of the Grand Wayne Convention Center, Thirsty Camel features more than a handful of beers on tap and more than a dozen imported and premium bottled beers. The restaurant's suds selection makes for a model accomplice to its food spread, which includes such shareable munchies, such as buffalo-style wings and onion petals served with an onion-petal sauce. After warming up with some appetizers, diners can tackle homemade hamburgers and 16-ounce T-bone steaks—all while nodding to the beats of a live DJ on Friday and Saturday nights.
Guests at Beamer's Sports Grill won?t miss a single minute of their favorite games with the squad of flat-screen TVs hanging on Beamer's walls. Weekly pool tournaments and live musical acts add to the laid-back atmosphere.
Patrons fuel their activities with pretzels burgers, which come topped with bacon, peanut butter, swiss, american cheese, and an over-easy egg. They can also dive into shareable platters, including beer-battered onion rings and Beamer's boneless wings.
Northwood Cinema Grill one-ups traditional date nights by infusing a digital movie theater with a sit-down eatery's comfort and full menu. Before shows begin, diners can chatter with friends at round tables or countertop seating stacked atop tiered levels as a wait staff brings appetizers and conveys the menu through complex shadow puppetry. Then the silver screen lights up with a blockbuster, and diners distract their mouths with a veggie pizza, which groans under a heap of mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, black olives, and green peppers ($7.25 small; $12.25 large). Mozzarella and marinara sauce blanket the chicken parmesan snuggled into a pillowy sub ($8.75), and bacon cheeseburgers ($8.75) augment action scenes and make for aerodynamic torpedoes to launch at imposing villains. Final credits herald the beloved Chocolate Confusion cake's ($4.50) happy gastronomic ending.
