Dinner Theatre to
Raise Funds for West
Barnstable Firefighters
Association
By Kathleen Manwaring
kmanwaring@barnstablepatriot.com
The
old west is coming to
town! Well, it's coming to
the Elks Club on Bearse's
Way, anyway, and is bringing
with it murder, mayhem and a
rollicking good way to help raise
money for a great cause.
On Saturday evening the West
Barnstable Firefighters Relief
Association, in cooperation
with Brickroad Productions and
the Hyannis Elks, will present
a murder mystery dinner show
fundraiser to raise money for the
Firefighters Relief Association.
Chris Greim, president of the
association, came upon the idea
for a murder mystery show after
participating in a similar event
on a recent cruise.
"Our primary fundraiser is sell-
ing Christmas trees. We haven't
done any major fundraisers lately
and I was lucky to find this group
on the Internet ," Greim said.
The West Barnstable Fire-
fighters Association is made
up of past and present West
Barnstable firefighters and is a
means of financial assistance in
time of need.
"If something was to happen,
God forbid , to one of our boys
or girls and their medical bills
became astronomical, this fund
can help," explained Greim. "We
raise money to take care of our
own."
Because the West Barnstable
department is run by both full-
time and on-call firefighters ,
such a fund can be an important
asset, particularly for those who
may need its assistance.
Also included in the evening
will be a three-course pasta din-
ner with dessert made by the
department's finest.
The show, Murder on the Trail ,
will be performed by Brickroad
Productions of Chicopee and
promises the audience a won-
derful time. Set in the Old West
the show features a spirited cast
who will work with the audience
to determine who murdered So-
phie Tyler's ex-husband.
Greim is looking forward to a
full house and a fun evening.
"This is a win-win situation.
There is absolutely no way we
can lose money on this," he said.
"We would love to see as many
people there to have a good time
and support a great cause."
Tickets for the event are $35
per person including dinner and
the show. Hilarity is no extra
charge. For more information
please contact the Hyannis Elk
at 508-778-1463 or the West
Barnstable Fire Department at
508-362-3241.
It's Murder at the Hyannis Elks!

- This message is driven home
by the Stages Theatre Company
in Everyman. The 15th century
morality play is now on stage
in Orleans, as performed by the
Community of Jesus's theater
group. The theater group wanted
to incorporate the use of masksto
depictthe allegorical characters
in the play, which were created
by a team of eight artists and
craftsmen. Performances are
scheduled for Feb. 24, 25 & 26,
March 3, 4, & 5, showtimes are
Fridays & Saturdays at 7:30 p.m.
and Sundays at 3 p.m. at the
Church of the Transfiguration,
7 Bay View Drive, Rock Harbor,
Orleans. For reservations and
information call 508-240-2400.

their home the next logical step
was to get them together with
the many popular and diverse
Hyannis eateries.
"We have everything from
bistros to fine dining, " said Cole.
"People will be able to take in
some of the local artists and then
have a wonderful supper and save
money while doing it."
The plan will have all of the
art galleries staying open until 8
p.m. starting next Thursday and
continuing on the first Thursday
of each month.
The galleries will validate your
viewing and then it's off to one of 10
downtown restaurants participating.
The menu is extremely varied
from Brazilian , Italian . British ,
Indian and American a little
something for everyone's taste
if you will, and Cole said the
Artscape Thursday's will be a
year-round venture that's sure to
be a big hit.
"There are so many different
galleries and so many different
restaurants I think the locals will
want to do this over and over
again," said the business director.
"Hyannis is truly on the verge
of a renaissance. It is really
becoming a cultural center. The
construction on Main Street is
done , the Walk Way to the Sea is
complete , and there are many,
many new stores and merchants.
I think that the word on the
street is very optimistic. There's
a real nice energy out there," said
Cole.

women secretly sewing their
arpilleras in a church basement.
Each arpillera comes to life in a
combination of textures including
fragments of clothing the women
wore and locks of their own hair to
represent the hair of their missing
loved one.
Ringler credits the exhibit with
bringing awareness of the Chilean
situation to the Cape Cod commu-
nity. "In some sense [the tapes-
tries] were done for the women
to work through these terrible
issues," says Ringler. "It brought
women together in their pain. The
tapestries then became something
that could point graphically to the
issues."
The tapestries will be on display
Monday through Friday in the Gal-
lery from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and for
the same hours during the March
4 Multicultural Festival. Marjo-
rie Agosin will speak about her
experiences at noon on Saturday,
March 4.
