Tonight is the night the ghouls come alive in Hope.
The Musical Monster Mash will start at 7 p.m. on Oct. 26 at the Station House, at the corner of the Old Hope Princeton Highway. The Hope Performing Arts Community Theatre will be putting on a musical show, to be followed by dancing and live music.
Everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend in costume. Light snacks are provided, and tickets are $10.
And later in the year, the same group is getting ready to present a pantomime.
This year's show is Beauty, the Baron and the Beast. A pantomime is a British musical theatre tradition, in which men are cast as women and women are cast as men.
The panto will be held on Dec. 22 at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. and on Dec. 23, there will be a brunch with the characters. Some of the characters include Cinderella, Belle, Red Riding Hood and Prince Charming. The brunch starts at noon and the show follows at 1 p.m.
Tickets for the show are $10. Tickets for brunch and a show are $12. They can be reserved by emailing hopeact@gmail.com or calling 1-604-206-7227.
