    Hyannis, November 7, 2016:
    • The Drama Club is proud to present Deborah Brevoort's beautifully written and powerful play "The Women of Lockerbie." Showtimes will be on December 8th, 9th, 10th, 14th, 15th, 16th & 17th at 7pm. Additionally, there will be two special 2pm matinees on December 10th & 17th. General admission tickets are $10, and can be purchased online or at the door. Please see the school website for additional purchasing details. This is a play about love and kindness overcoming grief and evil, and celebrates the power of women's voices in being an agent for positive change in our world. This is a story of hope, and how we are in charge of our own thoughts, which in turn shapes our existence. It is an uplifting look at how humans can change grief into love and is a timely story for us to tell and hear. The Drama Club hopes for you to join them to “complete the circle that theater truly is.”
