Thrive 55+ Active Living Center, 102 Newtown Road, Groton

If you’re looking for a unique way to celebrate mom and Mother’s Day this year—or you just want to enjoy some entertaining local theater—get your tickets to The Mama Follies: A Lighthearted Tribute to Motherhood! This will be Groton Regional Theatre’s third annual Mother’s Day show. While the first two years’ shows ran the gamut from comedy to drama, this year is all about the laughs! Because it’s Groton Regional Theatre’s 30th anniversary, they decided to make this year especially fun so all GRT’s 2026 season shows will be comedies.
The Mama Follies consists of 8 short plays, 6 of which will be world premieres. The topics include finding help for a cantankerous aging mother; mothers one-upping one another to the point of absurdity; moms commiserating about perimenopause, husbands, and teenagers; a group of silly soccer moms at their kids' game; an old-fashioned mom from Italy who thinks nobody is good enough for her son; an older mom getting ready for a date and her dubious daughter; a quartet of Southern sisters squabbling after the death of their elderly mother; and a conversation between Mother Earth, Mars, and Venus. The playwrights are Christine Reynolds, Kate Tokarski, Betsy Kudlacz, Marj O’Neill-Butler, Nathan Rumney, A. Flynn Rumney, and Anna Maria Trusky. The cast features Darla Allen, Meagan Brunelle, Shaughnessy Burns, Jack Hughes, Justine Lavoie, Anjie Leonard, Kathy O’Hara, Christine Reynolds, Linda Rowe Shea, Tom Steenburg, Veronica Strickland, Allison Thorp, Sara Vegas, and Christine Wilbur. The show is co-produced by Allison Thorp and Anna Maria Trusky.
WHERE: Community Room, Thrive 55+ Active Living Center, 102 Newtown Road, Groton CT 
SHOW DATES AND TIMES: Friday, May 8 at 7:30; Saturday, May 9 at 4:00; and Sunday, May 10 at 2:00. For the Sunday performance there will be an optional brunch beginning at 1:00—RESERVATIONS REQUIRED and must be received by Monday, May 4. The Sunday brunch will include scrambled eggs, bacon, sausage, pancakes, fruit, pastries, coffee, tea, orange juice.

Have
 you shot 35mm film? Want to slow down your creative image-making and

Learn how to understand and follow a sewing pattern.
Have
 you ever wanted to make a particular item but had no idea how to do it?
 So, you went to the store or online and purchased a pattern to make it.
 What could be simpler, right? Now you have the pattern but are 
completely baffled by all the information and don't know where to begin!
 Or, maybe you didn't even buy the pattern at all because when you 
looked at it, it was so overwhelming. This class will help to 
demystify patterns! Once you understand how to read the pattern, you 
will have a much easier time creating your project.
, NOTE: *
 No sewing skills or previous experience is needed. This is NOT a sewing
 class; we will be covering how to understand and follow a pattern, but 
we will not be sewing anything. * If you 
already have a pattern that you would like help in understanding, feel 
free to bring it. Otherwise, we will have patterns for use during class.
