• 'Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors' Opens Actors' Shakespeare Project's 2026-27 Season (watertownmanews.com) — Watertown's Mosesian Center for the Arts will host Actors' Shakespeare Project's "Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors" from October 9 to November 1, bringing a campy, Halloween-ready vampire spoof to 321 Arsenal Street. The production features Elliot Norton Award-winner Paul Melendy and a Boston-based creative team, with tickets ranging from limited $20 seats to standard prices up to $90. Local theatergoers can expect a playful, horror-themed night out close to home.
• Free Adult Mental Health First Aid Training Offered by Wayside Multi-Service Center (watertownmanews.com) — A free Adult Mental Health First Aid course is being offered in early October at Lexington Gardens Learning Center on Phillip Darch Road in Watertown, with funding from the Watertown Community Foundation. Residents can learn to recognize mental health and substance use challenges, respond in a crisis, and connect people with help. Registration is required by October 1, and participants completing both evenings earn a certificate.
• 'Foot Soldiers Of Democracy': Belmont's State Senate Recount Reaffirms Brownsberger's Victory (belmontonian.com) — Watertown voters played a key role in a razor-thin state senate Democratic primary, where a district-wide recount ultimately reaffirmed incumbent Will Brownsberger's 35-vote victory. The race, spanning Belmont, Watertown, and parts of Boston and Cambridge, drew extra attention because it followed a dispute over Boston's proposed commercial tax hike, and both campaigns praised the meticulous recount process.
