Nunsense begins when the Little Sisters of Hoboken discover that their cook has accidentally poisoned 52 of the sisters. In dire need of funds for the burials, the sisters decide to raise the money by putting on a variety show. So the sisters take over Mt. Saint Helen’s school auditorium, which is currently set up for the school’s production of “Grease”. Come meet Reverend Mother Mary Regina (Brandon Byng); Sister Mary Hubert (Kari Devine), the Mistress of Novices; a streetwise nun from Brooklyn named Sister Robert Anne (Elizabeth Zitny); Sister Mary Leo (Ali Carlson), a novice who is a wannabe ballerina; and the delightfully wacky Sister Mary Amnesia (Karen Fuller). Featuring star turns, tap dancing and ballet, an audience quiz, and comic surprises, this show has delighted audiences with more than 5000 productions worldwide and has been translated into 21 languages.

Opening night is Friday, April 10 at 7:00pm. Abrams Spotlight Productions, Inc. will be celebrating by having an Opening Night Gala. Patrons that attend opening night will receive complimentary hors d’oeuvres and drinks after the show (with the cast and crew).

Subsequent show dates are as follows:
April 11th at 1pm & 7pm
April 12th at 1pm

National Dress in Blue Day

OFChamber

5412338_mColon cancer is one of the most preventable and treatable types of cancer, yet it remains the second-leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States. HSHS St. Clare Memorial Hospital is using the month of March, dedicated to Colon Cancer Awareness, to urge men and women to schedule their routine colonoscopies.

Colon cancer often begins as a non-cancerous growth. A colonoscopy can help doctors detect those growths long before they could develop into cancer.

Medical experts recommend everyone age 50 and older have a routine colonoscopy every 10 years to identify and remove precancerous growths. However, people who are at a higher risk for colon cancer or have a family history of the disease should consider scheduling colonoscopies earlier and more frequently, based on the recommendations of their doctor.

HSHS St. Clare Memorial Hospital providers and staff will commemorate Colon Cancer Awareness Month by taking part in National Dress in Blue Day on Friday, March 6, 2015.

JOHN DENVER MUSICAL TRIBUTE

OFChamber

image001 (1)JOHN DENVER MUSICAL TRIBUTE – Starring Ted Vigil

Ted Vigil, a man who, according to long-time Denver guitar accompanist Steve Weisberg, closely resembles John both physically and musically, is carrying on the tradition honoring this colossal music icon. Steve now accompanies Ted and is happy to once again be bringing the great compositions and hits of John Denver to audiences via a quality interpreter of Denver’s music.

Ted is not an impersonator, but rather sings a tribute to this great man. Ted Vigil is doing his best to pay homage. His gift for the music and polished and energetic performing style presents a warm and delightful evening through some of the world’s most popular music.

NWTC Delivering Credentials

OFChamber

NWTC in Oconto Falls has many classes available in a number of fields but now more than ever the site is delivering credentials in areas of business that companies and their employees can finish locally. Here are two that can be started and completed within the learner’s schedule:

Program Highlight: Leadership Development

The Leadership Development program is designed for persons who are already engaged in, or are preparing for, leadership roles in an organization.
Traditionally, a supervisor plans, organizes, directs, and coordinates activities of non-management employees in various occupational settings; trains and evaluates employees under her or his authority; implements policy decisions and work systems established by upper management; and facilitates communication and work flow. This program builds on these skills. In addition it prepares future leaders by teaching system(s), variation, and continuous improvement processes; how to be facilitators rather than bosses; effectively managing work place diversity; how to help organizations adapt to change and encourage innovation; leadership skills; critical thinking skills; and communication skills appropriate to a team environment.

Program Highlight: Human Resources
The Human Resources Associate Degree program prepares the learner for success in the dynamic work environments of: employment law, training and development of employees, compensation and benefits administration, labor relations supporting bargaining agreements, and wellness and safety initiatives.

Abrams Theatre Presents “Once Upon a Mattress

OnceAbrams Theatre Presents “Once Upon a Mattress”

Abrams Spotlight Productions, Inc. will present, Once Upon a Mattress (Music by, Mary Rodgers; Book by, Jay Thompson, Dean Fuller & Marshall Barer; Lyrics by, Marshall Barer) December 5, 2014 – December 14, 2014 at The Byng Community Theater in Abrams.

If you thought you knew the story of ‘The Princess and The Pea,’ you may be in for a walloping surprise!  Did you know, for instance, that Princess Winnifred actually swam the moat to reach Prince Dauntless the Drab?  Or that Lady Larken’s love for Sir Harry provided a rather compelling reason that she reach the bridal altar post haste?  Or that, in fact, it wasn’t the pea at all that caused the princess a sleepless night?  Carried on a wave of wonderful songs, by turns hilarious and raucous, romantic and melodic, this rollicking spin on the familiar classic of royal courtship and comeuppance provides for some side-splitting shenanigans.  Chances are you’ll never look at fairy tales quite the same way again.

Opening night is Friday, December 5 at 7:00pm.  Abrams Spotlight Productions, Inc. will be celebrating by having an Opening Night Gala.  Patrons that attend opening night will receive complimentary hors d’oeuvres and drinks after the show (with the cast and crew).

Subsequent show dates are as follows:

December 6th at 1pm & 7pm
December 7th at 1pm
December 12th at 7pm
December 13th at 1pm & 7pm
December 14th at 1pm
