West Parish Elementary School is blessed to be entering a new school building in the fall. In the two years that we have been gone, our beloved Science Park has fallen into disrepair. When we found out that the kids will be unable to play on then newly planted grass fields for a whole year after we begin school, a plan for fundraising was born (lest the children will have recess in the parking lots).
Mobile bidding has already started on some great items like a ride to school by the Gloucester Police Department for a lucky winner and a friend, a ride on the Tuna.com with Sandro Maniaci, or breakfast at Sailor Stans with Good Morning Gloucester’s fearless leader, Joey C. To view our event, or buy tickets go to www.biddingforgood.com/westparishschool

We will have live, mobile and silent items.
We have received hundreds of donations from generous donors from our amazing Cape Ann community and beyond. Doors open at 6pm and tickets can be purchased at the door as well, $25 per person, $40 for a couple, light dinner fare and dessert is included. Friday April 1st, 6pm at the Cruiseport (one of our generous event sponsors).
BOOM!

Cape Ann Theatre Collaborative presents “Blithe Spirit”

Martini and Séance anyone? Blithe Spirit tells the story of
novelist Charles Condomine, a suave & dapper charmer,
who contacts the lovable & outlandish medium  Madame Arcati,
to conduct a séance, as he needs material  for his new book “The Unseen.”

As a result of the séance, Charles gets more than he bargained for,
when his deceased first wife, the ‘morally untidy’ Elvira, returns from the dead
to make mischief & create havoc with Charles & his rather staid,
& boring marriage to his second wife, the uptight & domineering Ruth.

What follows is a madcap, wildly frolicsome adventure,
full of aristocratic banter and brittleness, & a  prickly menage a trois.
Of course, Blithe Spirit enchants not only because of the otherworldly plot,
but the playwright’s diamond-sharp wit.
