This Week in Chester
Tomorrow night, Thursday, the grades 3-5 present "Puff" at the Chester Playhouse at 7 pm. Set
in Newfoundland the story follows the town grouch trying to hide a lie
he told years ago. Determined to get the truth, Miss Wicks, the health
care practitioner and her trusted friend Lady Grenfell, set off to
discover what's been causing the grouch's mysterious burns. Cynthia,
Marla, Bunch and many other souls have been face and eyes into this
production so you know it will be top drawer.
Stop in at the Fo'c'sle for a wing or twelve before heading over. Get the sauce "hot on." Divine !
