A Drama by Anne Nelson

In Honor of Walpole's Firefighters and in Memory of 9/11

All proceeds go to the Walpole Fire Department.

Less than two weeks after the September 11th attacks, New Yorkers are still in shock. One of them, an editor named Joan, receives an unexpected phone call on behalf of Nick, a fire captain who has lost most of his men in the attack. He's looking for a writer to help him with the eulogies he must present at their memorial services. Nick and Joan spend a long afternoon together, recalling the fallen men through recounting their virtues and their foibles, and fashioning the stories into memorials of words. In the process, Nick and Joan discover the possibilities of friendship in each other and their shared love for the unconquerable spirit of the city. As they make their way through the emotional landscape of grief, they draw on humor, tango, the appreciation of craft in all its forms—and the enduring bonds of common humanity. THE GUYS is based on a true story.

All seating is reserved. Tickets are $20.

As seen nationally on FOX, PBS, NBC’s Today Show and alongside Jim Henson’s Muppets, professional magician and comedian Matt Roberts presents an interactive, hilarious and amazing show that you will never forget! During this dynamic, family-friendly performance, audiences of all ages will not only witness astonishing original illusions, skillful sleight-of-hand and an exciting twist on Houdini’s impressive straitjacket escape, but will also become part of the show as spectators are brought on stage to have their minds read, take part in making objects disappear and to assist in a jaw-dropping levitation that has to be seen to be believed.

Tickets: Adults, $15.00; Children under 12, $10.00
