Beneath The Stars Park

Beneath the Stars Park

This theme park opens at 4 PM and closes at 12 PM. The entrance is through the backdoor of a Barber Shop. Within this Barber shop is where you start your journey back in time to one of the most lively times in history, the Roaring Twenties. In this Barbershop you get to change your appearance to  fit in with 1920s fashion. Whether you put on a dapper tux or a fancy flapper dress you will be ready to party all night long. You can even get a haircut and/or a shave in this barbershop if you so choose. Once you exit the barbershop you are on Main Street. This street which lights up as soon as the sun sets is filled with stores, restaurants, dance halls, bed and breakfasts, and Speakeasies, some easier to find than others.  There is constantly live music playing on the street. Each speakeasy has different styles of music ranging from the Jazz, Swing, to even some with Electro-swing. Each restaurant, speakeasy, and dance hall also have different influences including, Paris, New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, and other lively cities of the 1920s.

One example of a speakeasy is located underneath what from the outside and main entrance appears to be a small bakery, which it in fact does sell French pastries. But, towards the back where there is a small reading area, is a bookcase. There is a book colored differently from the rest. If you pull this book, the bookcase will slide open and reveal a staircase. Muffled music can be heard once the bookcase opens. If you walk down the stairs you will see a door. Open the door and you are transported into a Parisian speakeasy called, Le Miaulement du Chat, which translates to Cats Meow in French. Within this speakeasy there are specialty cocktails that are inspired by drinks during the 1920s, as well as a dance floor. The music is a live elctro-swing band. Swing dancing is highly encouraged. There is food as well which includes fun 1920s inspired finger food. There are flappers and burlesque dancers who do performances periodically.

Located on the second floor of every store and restaurant are rooms. These rooms are intimately styled to be a place to stay the night until you sober up in the morning if you have been drinking or if you are just too tired to drive home. The reason why the park closes at 11 AM is for this reason. Safety is a top priority of the park. Although none of the clubs/speakeasies are open past 12 PM, stores as well as bakeries, cafes, and some restaurants are open until park closing at 12PM.

Located at the end of the street is the 1920s inspired Amusement Park. This includes rides such as, the moon coaster, Swings, a Carousel, as well as many fun carnival games. The park truly is dazzling and is inspired by the Luna Park and Coney Island of the 1920s.
