One of the Owl’s favorite theatrical productions is on its way into Weston’s Woods, or at least our high school, in mid-November. Owls like woods, and this one in particular because it brings back memories of living in Connecticut and heading into the City (no descriptor needed–Boston is a town; there is only one City) for a weekend adventure sometimes involving a Broadway play and sometimes involving spicy food at Szechuan Taste but I am losing track here. When last I saw Into the Woods, the fabulous Bernadette Peters was in the role of the Witch. While that may seem a hard act to follow, trust me when I say that the actors of Weston High School are up for it.

Mark your calendars: tickets on sale November 1.

Ah, and go ‘cats!
