Cape Cod Maritime Museum

Join Bob Zaremba, owner of Maps of Antiquity in Chatham, for an illustrated journey through the early nautical charts of Cape Cod and the Northeast. Housed in a historic late-1700s Chatham farmhouse, Maps of Antiquity offers over 15,000 antique maps, charts, and prints, spanning early American maps, hand-colored 19th-century state and country maps, historical prints, and more. In this talk, Bob will showcase rare and fascinating charts that guided mariners along Cape Cod and the Northeast, explore their history, and share insights from his decades of expertise in antique maps, restoration, and conservation. Navigate the history of nautical charts of Cape Cod from Samuel de Champlain to our own local chart makers George Eldridge and his son George W. Eldridge, of Chatham. Learn about the development of American chart making from after the revolution to the 20th Century. This is a must-see for anyone interested in maritime history, navigation, or the story of early American chart making!

Barnstable Comedy Club

The Barnstable Comedy Club proudly presents THE COTTAGE, a comedy by Sandy Rustin. The show opens on Thursday, May 7 and continues for 3 weekends through May 24 on Friday and Saturday evenings at 7:30 PM with Sunday matinee performances at 2:30PM. General admission tickets are $30 / $28 for seniors 65+ and students. Group sale discounts are available for parties of 10 or more. Tickets and more information are available online at <a href="https://www.barnstablecomedyclub.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.barnstablecomedyclub.org</a> or by calling the box office at 508-362-6333. 

 Under the direction of Alex Lucchesi, the stellar cast includes Sandy Basile, June Christine Farlin, Charlie McDougal, Glen Porter, Frank Scanzillo and Lizzy Smythe. The stage manager is Sue Boberg.
 From the playwright that took CLUE from screen to stage, THE COTTAGE is an outrageously roaring 20's romp that will have you laughing from start to finish. Set in an English country cottage, a woman decides to expose her latest affair to both her husband—and her lover's wife. As secrets unravel and passions collide, the meaning of love, identity, and marriage are all thrown into question, and served in a way only the British can serve it: with tea. With shocking plot twists, scandalous reveals, and razor-sharp humor, THE COTTAGE is a deliciously funny hit comedy where no one’s secrets are safe. 
 'The Cottage' is presented by special arrangement with Broadway Licensing, LLC, servicing the Dramatists Play Service collection.
