$10
  • « Jason & Cova DeMent Live at Rivermont BierHaus
  • Whiskey Shakes Live at Rivermont BierHaus »

Join Cary Elwes (Westley) for a behind-the-scenes look at life on and off the set of the classic film, The Princess Bride. After a screening of the iconic movie, Elwes will engage in a moderated discussion revealing never before shared secrets and tales of inconceivable antics!

Journey back to the lands of Florin and Guilder in an adventure filled with fencing, fighting, torture, revenge, giants, monsters, chases, escapes, miracles, and of course, true love.

Elwes has been in a multitude of films and tv shows, including Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Bram Stoker’s Dracula, Saw, Twister, Liar, Liar, Stranger Things, and The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. He recently finished starring in an Untitled Guy Ritchie Film for Miramax and Mission Impossible 7. Now, Elwes is hitting the road to share with fans the personal stories behind the making of this piece of cinematic history.

A limited number of VIP packages are available and include the best seats in the house, a Meet and Greet with Cary Elwes, and a signed copy of Elwes’ New York Times best-selling memoir, As You Wish: Inconceivable Tales from the Making of The Princess Bride.

Don’t be a “Humperdinck”, make haste to see The Princess Bride: An Inconceivable Evening with Cary Elwes for a night you will always “tweasure”.

Academy Member Presale begins Wednesday, May 19, 2021. Remaining tickets will be released to the public on Thursday, May 27, 2021.
