Winter Season 2012/2013
Flowers for Algernon
by Daniel Keyes
March 22 - April 7 * NO performance EASTER Sunday March 31
Friday & Saturday @ 8 pm
Sundays @ 2 pm
This is the compelling story of Charlie, a mentally retarded man, and the strange interweaving of his life with that of Algernon, a mouse. This is a different kind of play: poignant, romantic, funny and tragic, but with hope of man's indomitable spirit.
Othello
by William Shakespeare
May 3 - May 19
Friday & Saturday @ 8 pm, Sundays @ 2 pm
The mercenary Moor Othello, general of the Venetian armies, has just married Desdemona, daughter of a powerful senator. But their delight cannot last long. The villain Iago will see to that. He is jealous for having been passed over for promotion by Othello in favor of the untested gentleman soldier Michael Cassio. He will stop at nothing until he uses Desdemona to destroy the two men he hates.
Fiddler on the Roof
music by Jerry Bock, lyrics by Sheldon Harnick,
and book by Joseph Stein
June 14 - July 7
Friday & Saturday @ 8 pm
Sundays @ 2 pm
In the little village of Anatevka, Tevye, a poor dairyman, tries to instill in his five daughters the traditions of his tight-knit Jewish community in the face of changing social mores and the growing anti-Semitism of Czarist Russia.
The Kitchen Witches
by Caroline Smith
July 12 -August 4
Friday & Saturday @ 8 pm
Sundays @ 2 pm
Isobel Lomax and Dolly Biddle are two "mature" cable-access cooking show hostesses who have hated each other for 30 years. When circumstances put them together on a TV show called The Kitchen Witches, the insults are flung harder than the food! The show becomes a rating smash as Dolly and Isobel top both Martha Stewart and Jerry Springer!
Leading Ladies
by Ken Ludwig
July 13 - August 5
Friday & Saturday @ 8 pm
Sundays @ 2 pm
The author of "Lend Me a Tenor" is at his best in the wild farce about two aging actors who hear an old, dying woman is leaving her fortune to two long lost English nephews. They intend to pass themselves off as the nephews, but when they get to town, they discover the nephews are nieces!!! Maybe it's time for a costume change!!!

Keep Homestead Museum
35 Ely Road
Monson, MA 01057
413-267-4137
http://www.keephomesteadmuseum.org
When Myra Keep Lovell Moulton died in 1988, the last of a long line of Keeps in Monson, she willed her property, its contents and an endowment fund to the town. She was an avid collector and her button collection is considered one of the largest in the US. She mastered many forms of needlework and many of her works are on isplay, as are examples of her work in oil, water color and ceramics. History was also important to Myra and the museum contains many examples of this interest: history of her family, her town, her church, rocks and minerals of the area -- to name only a few.
Open House: 1st Sunday of each month 1:00-3:00pm from early April to December. Nature tours frequently available with former National Park Service naturalist
Special request tours are available by calling or e-mailing.
