  • Jeffrey Melzack's Teachable Moments Artist Reception at Open Door Gallery

    Posted Sunday March 15 2015 at 07:54 am in Open Door Gallery

    Solitude by Jeffrey Melzack

    Join us at the Open Door Gallery for Jeffrey Melzack's "Teachable Moments" artist reception.

    "Melzack uses colored pencil, watercolor and oils in landscapes and symbolic objects that evoke magical and whimsical worlds reminiscent of the works of Joan Miro and Paul Klee.  For Melzack art serves as a means of self-discovery, and one of his interests is in freezing those moments of anticipation and decision, when it is clear that events are about to unfold. . ."

    The Open Door Theater in Acton, Mass. presents "Shrek The Musical" March 20 - 29, 2015 with the following inclusive performances:
    - ASL-interpreted Sunday, March 22, 2015 at 2pm
    - Sensory-friendly Saturday, March 28, 2015 at noon
    - Audio-described Saturday, March 28, 2015 at 7:30pm

    SHREK THE MUSICAL, based on the Oscar winning DreamWorks film that started it all, brings the hilarious story of everyone's favorite ogre to dazzling new life on the stage.

    In a faraway kingdom turned upside down, things get ugly when an unseemly ogre - not a handsome prince - shows up to rescue a feisty princess.  Throw in a donkey who won't shut up, a bad guy with a SHORT temper, a cookie with an attitude and over a dozen other fairy tale misfits, and you've got the kind of mess that calls for a real hero.  Luckily, there's one on hand...and his name is Shrek.

    Full of all-new songs, great dancing and breathtaking scenery, SHREK THE MUSICAL is part romance, part twisted fairy tale and all irreverent fun for everyone!
