SUMMARY:TCAN Players: Puffs\, or\, Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic
DESCRIPTION:The TCAN Players return with their production of PUFFS\, or\, Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic – a play written by Matt Cox\, and directed at TCAN by Danielle Woods. \nFor seven years\, a certain boy wizard went to a certain Wizard School and conquered evil. \nThis\, however\, is not his story. \nThis is the story of the young wizards of Hufflepuff House… who just happened to be there too. \nPUFFS is a play for anyone who has never been destined to save the world! This clever show “never goes more than a minute without a laugh” (Nerdist) giving you a new look at a familiar adventure from the perspective of three potential heroes just trying to place fourth at a very dangerous magic school for kids. Overlooked and underestimated\, the Puffs are a perky\, well-meaning\, loyal group of outsiders with a thing for badgers. Their “hilariously heartfelt!” (Metro) and epic journey takes the classic story to new places and reimagines what a hero can be. \nCONTENT ADVISORY\nPUFFS\, like the source material it parodies\, can be considered PG-13. It features some adult language and situations. We leave it up to parents to decide for themselves if this show is right for those under the age of 13\, younger wizards may learn some new curses. \nDirected by Danielle Woods\nProduced by Amanda Greenslet and Dick Mandel \nOUR CAST \nWayne Hopkins – Scott Salley (Framingham)\nOliver Rivers – Sophia Kelley (Littleton)\nMegan Jones – Emily Isaac (Somerville)\nNarrator – Kirsty Vitarelli (Natick)\nErnie Mac\, A Certain Potions Teacher – Paul Antico (Cohasset)\nFirst Headmaster\, Professor McG – Cathy Merlo (Wellesley)\nJ Finch Fletchley\, Uncle Dave – Liv Tambascio (Boston)\nLianne\, Hannah\, Ginny – Liv Skerry (Holliston)\nSally Perks\, Blondo Malfoy – Tara Boudreau (Brighton)\nSusie Bones\, Harry\, Colin – Camryn Hafner (Somerville)\nCedric\, Mr Voldy – Jessica Moss (Newtonville)\nHannah\, Ensemble – Ann Springer (Natick)\nHelga\, Ensemble – Ellis Lennon (Hopkinton) \nPERFORMANCES \nFriday\, November 7\, 2025 | 7:30pm\nSaturday\, November 8\, 2025 | 7:30pm\nSunday\, November 9\, 2025 | 2:00pm\nThursday\, November 13\, 2025 | 7:30pm\nFriday\, November 14\, 2025 | 7:30pm\nSaturday\, November 15\, 2025 | 7:30pm\nSunday\, November 16\, 2025 | 2:00pm

SUMMARY:Peter Mulvey
DESCRIPTION:Peter Mulvey has been a songwriter\, road-dog\, raconteur\, and almost-poet since before he can remember. In 1989 he spent a year in Ireland\, busking on the streets of Dublin and hitchhiking to whatever gigs he could find. Back stateside\, he spent a couple years gigging through the bars of his native Midwest before taking off for Boston\, where he returned to subway busking and coffeehouses. Small shows led to larger shows\, which eventually led to regional and then national touring. The wheels have not stopped since. \nTwenty albums\, one illustrated book\, thousands of live performances\, a TEDx talk\, a decades-long association with the National Youth Science Camp\, opening tours and gigs for luminaries such as Ani DiFranco\, Greg Brown\, Emmylou Harris and Chuck Prophet\, appearances on NPR\, an annual autumn tour by bicycle\, emceeing festivals\, hosting his own Lamplighter Sessions for years in Boston and in Wisconsin… he has built his life’s work on collaboration\, on an instinct for the eclectic and the vital. \nVisit: petermulvey.com
