Print Story | Email Story
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Mount Greylock Regional School presents "Oliver!" on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, March 2, 3, and 4, 2023, at 7 p.m. in the school's auditorium at 1781 Cold Spring Road in Williamstown. 
 
According to a press release:
 
Based on "Oliver Twist," by Charles Dickens, "Oliver!" follows its titular character on a journey from a workhouse for orphans to bustling London, where Oliver falls in with a ring of young pickpockets. As the action builds, the audience is treated to both laughter and tears, but most of all award-winning music and a rousing theatrical experience.
 
Lionel Bart wrote the book, music, and lyrics for "Oliver!"
 
Faculty member Jeffrey Welch directs his 24th musical for Mount Greylock. Vocal direction is by Mount Greylock Regional School (MGRS) band and chorus teacher Jacqueline Vinette, assisted by senior Sam Tucker-Smith. 
 
Concessions and a raffle will be provided by the MGRS Friends of the Arts, with proceeds benefiting school arts. Prizes include original artwork and tickets to music and theater events, ranging in value from $175 to $268 per prize.
 
Show tickets must be purchased in advance—$10 for adults and $5 for students—and are available by visiting https://events.ticketspicket.com/agency/6b645140-ef06-47fb-89f8-e10319e8f1a9

Letter: Williamstown Garden Club Seeks Members

Letter to the Editor

To the Editor:

Have you enjoyed the seasonal, colorful flowers around Williamstown? Did you know these efforts are the work of Williamstown Garden Club (WGC) members?

These include the containers at town intersections, the post office, Town Hall, Milne Library, Field Park, and the bike path.

Are you eager to see the green boxes with cascading flowers return to Walley bridge, also the work of the WGC? The club needs to increase its membership to assist with these efforts, which are enjoyed by so many — both residents and those just passing through town.

Membership is open to all and offers an excellent opportunity to contribute to the community, as well as enjoy educational programs and garden tours. Learn more at williamstowngardenclub.org.
