Stories can’t hurt you…
MAPLEWOOD, NJ: This Halloween season, interACT Theatre Productions invites audiences beyond the graveyard gates for the East Coast Premiere of The Graveyard Girls, a theatrical horror comedy by Tommy Jamerson, directed by interACT Artistic Director Nicholas J. Clarey.
Featuring original incidental and scene-change music by Edward A. Bean, The Graveyard Girls runs October 9 through 24, 2026 at the Burgdorff Center for the Performing Arts in Maplewood, New Jersey.
Best friends Lauree, Sydney, and Nancie have an annual Halloween tradition: sneaking into an abandoned graveyard and competing to tell the most terrifying story around the campfire. But when Nancie’s love interest joins the festivities, the evening takes an unexpected turn. Stories meant to be make-believe begin to feel disturbingly real.
Blending dark humor, theatrical scares, friendship, and three frightening tales told around the fire, The Graveyard Girls explores what happens when the line between storytelling and reality begins to disappear.
“What drew me to The Graveyard Girls is that it understands why we tell scary stories in the first place,” says Nicholas J. Clarey, director and interACT Artistic Director. “We scare ourselves because it’s fun, because it brings us together, and sometimes because the things that frighten us have something to tell us. This production embraces all of that. It’s funny, it’s creepy, it’s theatrical, and then, when you least expect it, it gets genuinely unsettling.”
The production stars Maki Iman as Lauree, Melissa Mugica as Sydney, May Riekenberg as Nancie, and Michael McBride as Jack, with Jerry Narciso, Nat Gennace, Joe Miceli, Botond Ekler-Szabo, Ruth Rooney, Joel Redmount, Andre Fleming, Addie Kriegel, Arielle Waller, Emily Martin, Christine Melina, Jillana Kucey, Sophia Rounsavill, and Lital Knoll.
The creative team includes Assistant Director Ricky Cortez; Producers Serena Marie Smith, Brittany Reese, and Tommy Jamerson; Stage Manager Tommy Barbara; Assistant Stage Manager Ellie Schuckman; Technical Director Douglas Reese; Fight Director Craig Hill; Intimacy Director Amanda Castro-Conroy; Costumer Leila Tai Brown; Lighting Designer Danny Viola; Sound Designer Alex Post; Props Designer/SFX Props Creator Johanna Hill; Props Director Lisa Tasch; Program Designer Mark Aquilino; Social Media Director Sabrina Santoro; Box Office Manager Dawilla Madsen; and Production Photographer Gabrielle Williams. Clarey also serves as Set Designer.

Heritage Middle School

Season Of Celebration with the Livingston Symphony Orchestra
The Livingston Symphony Orchestra’s2026-2027 Season programming celebrates through music, history and spirit two extraordinary milestones: America’s 250th anniversary and the 200th
anniversary of Beethoven’s death. You are invited to join Maestro Anthony LaGruth and the talented musicians` of the non-profit Livingston Symphony Orchestra on Saturday, October 24 at 7:30 pm for an exciting opening concert, “The Sounds of Freedom,” at Heritage Middle School, 20 Foxcroft Drive, Livingston. 
This live performance kicks off with John Williams’ energetic, slightly off kilter “March from 1941,” from Stephen Spielberg’s 1979 film of the same name. Next, audience members can listen to American composer Charles Ives as he interprets` the meaning of life in the atmospheric “The Unanswered Question.”Amongst his most widely performed overtures, Beethoven’s “Leonore No. 3,” follows, encapsulating the themes from his only opera, “Fidelio,” and echoing the composer’s treasured values of heroism and freedom.The concert is capped off by what is considered by many to be Dvorak’s finest Symphony, his No.7 in D minor.Written during a time of political and ethnic strife and deep personal loss, this work is infused with such passion, grief and patriotism that it is a deeply emotional experience for both musicians and audience members to share.
Tickets for what promises to be an unforgettable evening of fine live music “close to home” can be purchased on the Livingston Symphony Orchestra’s website or at the door on October 24. Seniors and students can take advantage of ticket discounts, and children under 12 accompanied by an adult are welcome free of charge. Season ticket discounts are also available on the orchestra’s website,<a href="https://www.lsonj.org" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">www.lsonj.org</a>.

Enlow Recital Hall

At the intersection of Jazz and Jamaican music in the 50s and 60s stood two luminary figures… guitarist Ernest Ranglin and pianist Monty Alexander. Their historic recordings over many decades literally introduced the world to what we now know as the Jamaican Ska movement… which traveled throughout the Caribbean and the rest of the world. The ingenious interweaving of jazz’s complexities with the ancestral music of the Caribbean immediately influenced legends such as Bob Marley, Toots &amp; the Maytals, and many other artists of the time.
Today, in his 80s, Monty Alexander has discovered the genius of a 17-year-old guitar prodigy from New Jersey who is heavily influenced and inspired by the great Ernest Ranglin. After a recent guest appearance with Alexander at the Blue Note in New York, Hidalgo’s virtuosic approach was clearly informed by Ranglin and an even deeper appreciation of the material that Ranglin and Alexander created many decades prior.
Both Ranglin and Alexander have recently proclaimed Hidalgo “the new torchbearer of Jamaican Jazz”.

Wilkins Theatre

The true spirit of Christmas lives in this heartwarming production of Charles Dickens’ holiday classic. Audiences, young and old, will leave the theater enchanted by this timeless tale of Ebenezer Scrooge’s miraculous redemption. Guided by the ghosts of Jacob Marley and Christmas Past, Present and Future, the world’s most famous miser undergoes a magical, stirring transformation into a marvelous man of overflowing love, kindness and generosity.
CMI Entertainment, in collaboration with Entertainment Central Productions Orlando, is proud to present this beloved story in a version that will move every theatergoer with the wonder of its stirring message of goodwill and holiday hope. Their National Tour features a faithful, fun-filled homage to Dickens’ original vision. Brilliantly illuminated projections bathe the period-evocative set pieces with the misty, cobblestoned atmosphere of old London town. Beautifully sung choral arrangements of everyone’s best-loved Christmas carols are woven through the two hours of this joyous theatrical journey. The heartfelt acting talent of a nationally selected cast (dressed in dazzling costumes) will bring characters like Mister Fezziwig, Bob Cratchit and Tiny Tim to life in charming, memorable performances. Otherworldly light and sound effects, along with eerie, larger-than-life puppets, accentuate this dreamlike, haunting ghost story.
A Christmas Carol was Charles Dickens’ gift to a weary world that had almost forgotten the values of goodness and sharing. More than a play, this presentation reminds family members (children, parents and grandparents) that there is a special time of every year when people embrace the belief that it is better to give than to receive and that kindness is contagious. The fantastic Christmas Eve of Ebenezer Scrooge is a rollicking roller coaster ride of emotions. Often hilarious, sometimes spooky, you will witness the thrilling conversion of a humbug into a hugger! This crowd-pleasing show embodies the best of the holiday spirit and will bring laughter, a few tears and, mostly, joy to all who partake in its warm glow. We say, “Long live Christmas!”
