Scythian is throwing a fantastic party in Philadelphia...It’s A Mad, Mad, Masquerade New Year’s Ball A 135 year old mansion, 6 hours, 2 bands, 1 magician, a DJ, a ghost and an open bar will join forces to throw the grandest New Year's party this side of the Atlantis. After a two year hiatus from the hallowed grounds of our country's birthplace, Scythian returns to the Historic (and Haunted?) Stotesbury Mansion at Rittenhouse Square in Philadelphia - on the heels of a World Series Pennant and the presidential election. This year's event will be a more intimate affair with only 250 tickets being sold. Expect to be wowed and awed by the beauty of the mansion and the exploits of Scythian and other entertainers. And don't forget the important part: open bar and heavy hor d'oerves. As usual, make sure to wear a classy masquerade costume and mask. And to honor that creative streak we know you all have - make sure to stay for January 1st and soak up the famous Philadelphia Mummer's Parade, the Mardi Gras of the North.
