This weekend and next in #CambridgeMA:

North Cambridge Family Opera presents "Weedpatch"!

http://www.familyopera.org/

🎵 We're Weedpatch! We blew in on a dust storm
Weedpatch! And we're here to stay
We may be broke, but we're not broken
No sir, no way! 🎵

An uplifting story from a slice of US history (based on true events), with music informed by American folk songs and a variety of mid-20th-century musical styles.

Performed entirely in song by a large intergenerational cast (dozens of local families -- including mine), with side-titles projected so you don't miss a word. Fun for all ages!

Eight performances, on March 21-22 and March 28-29, at the Andrew Peabody School, 70 Rindge Avenue, North Cambridge.

I caught St. Luke’s “Waiting in the Wings” the other night - frothy, fun, and sweet!
Loved seeing so many women, many of them older, take places of prominence on the stage!

The pacing was a little slow at times, so the show runs almost three hours, but definitely a touching and funny performance.

It closes this weekend, so get your tickets quickly! #YYJ #LocalTheatre #CommunityTheatre

Duns PlayFest's Director (John McEwen) and Producer (Sara Best) talk about the packed programme for this year's festival (first week in May).

The cat's out of the bag! I've been cast in Garfield Shakespeare Company's upcoming production of Richard III!

I guess it would be more accurate to say "Clarence is in the barrel," eh? IYKYK. #Shakespeare #CommunityTheatre

When you're feeling vaguely curious and somewhat bored and sliiiiiightly masochistic (this is mild trauma from YEARS ago, so really it was just morbid curiosity), so you look up some of your old "co stars" from your community musical theatre era…

And the Golden Barbie Girl is now an ABA "behavior technician." Suddenly her condescending attitude towards me makes a lot more sense all these years later. If that was her mindset / approach to autism all along (even though I hadn't even suspected it in myself yet)…
