Local Greek Market Celebrates Greek Lenten Traditions

Greek International Food Market 

West Roxbury, MA — As the season of Lent begins for millions observing Orthodox Christian traditions, Greek International Food Market in West Roxbury is welcoming the community to explore the rich flavors and centuries-old traditions of Greek Lenten cuisine. Owner Katerina Iliades, whose family has served the Boston Greek community for decades, says many of the foods enjoyed during Lent reflect long-standing Greek culinary traditions. “Lent is a forty-day season leading up to Easter when many families embrace traditional fasting foods rooted in the Mediterranean diet,” says Iliades. “The dishes enjoyed during this time — from beans and vegetables to seafood and olive oil — have been part of Greek culinary traditions for centuries.” During the Lenten season, many Christians avoid meat and dairy, turning instead to a vibrant variety of Mediterranean dishes that are naturally plant-based and deeply rooted in Greek culinary tradition. At Greek International Food Market, customers can enjoy a wide selection of traditional homemade Lenten meals including: Okra in tomato sauce Greek string beans (fasolakia) Stuffed grape leaves (dolmades) Giant beans baked in tomato sauce (gigantes) Bean salads and Mediterranean vegetable dishes The market also carries a large variety of Lenten pantry staples and imported Greek products, including vegan Greek pies, Mediterranean vegetables, canned and dried beans, and an extensive olive bar featuring a wide selection of Greek olives. Seasonal Lenten specialties available at the market also include fresh-baked lagana bread, traditionally enjoyed on Clean Monday, along with beloved Greek sweets such as halva, loukoumia (Greek delights), and moustokouloura. periods. For more than 16 years, Greek International Food Market has served as a destination for authentic Greek foods, imported products and homemade Mediterranean specialties in the Boston area. “We love sharing these traditions with our community,” says Iliades.

<h1>Needham Community Theatre Brings the Chaos Backstage to Your Front Row</h1>
Michael Frayn’s beloved farce Noises Off takes the stage at Carleton Auditorium, May 8–16, 2026
NEEDHAM, MA — If you’ve ever watched a performance and wondered what happens just out of sight — the frantic whispers, the misplaced props, the barely-averted disasters — Needham Community Theatre (NCT) is about to pull back the curtain. And what’s behind it is absolutely, gloriously unhinged.
NCT is proud to announce its upcoming production of Noises Off, the classic backstage farce by acclaimed British playwright Michael Frayn, running May 8–16, 2026 at Carleton Auditorium at Newman School, 1155 Central Ave, Needham, MA 02492.
First performed in London’s West End in 1982, Noises Off has earned its place as one of the funniest plays ever written. The show follows a ragtag touring theatre company as they muddle through rehearsals, performances, and the spectacular implosion of their personal lives — all while sardines, bouquets of flowers, and slamming doors threaten to bring the whole production to its knees. It’s a comedy about putting on a comedy, and it delivers laughs at a pace that will leave audiences breathless.
<h2>Meet the Cast</h2>
NCT is thrilled to welcome a wonderfully talented ensemble to this production:
Oonagh Delaney as Dotty/Mrs. Clackett
Andrew Rhodes as Lloyd
Camryn Hafner as Brooke/Vicki
Madison Canfora as Poppy
Christopher Moore as Frederick/Philip
Anne Krane as Belinda/Flavia
Ilan Barzilay as Tim
Dennis Hurley as Selsdon/Burglar
Justin Maloney as Garry/Roger

The production is directed by John Pease and produced by Michael Bailit, Patrick French, and Dan Henderson.
<h2>Performance Schedule</h2>
Friday, May 8 — 8:00 PM
Saturday, May 9 — 8:00 PM
Sunday, May 10 — 2:00 PM (matinee)
Friday, May 15 — 8:00 PM
Saturday, May 16 — 2:00 PM (matinee) and 8:00 PM

Venue: Carleton Auditorium at Newman School, 1155 Central Ave, Needham, MA 02492
<h2>Tickets</h2>
Tickets are now on sale and can be purchased online at ticketstage.com/T/NCT. Don’t wait — this one is sure to sell out!
