Life’s Little Mystery Theatre will answer the question, “Why don’t men like to shop?” and Fred Marple will bring the latest news from Frost Heaves. As always, the Speed Bumps band will compose an original “Song on the Spot” based on suggestions from the audience. Multi-talented folksinger and instrumentalist Craig Werth returns as featured musical guest. Werth has toured internationally as a soloist and with legendary singer David Francey who
calls Werth “a vast talent musically” and adds, “He is also the funniest man I have ever met.” Performances of Frost Heaves are Dec. 12 and 13 at 7:30 p.m., Dec. 14 at 2 p.m. at the Peterborough Players theatre. Tickets are $18 general admission, available at the Toadstool and Steeles in Peterborough, Rousseau’s Music in Jaffrey, online at frostheaves.com, or by calling 603-525-3391. Frost Heaves has been called “hilarious,” “absolutely brilliant,” and “more fun than looking for a parking spot at the mall, usually.” The show is family-friendly and appropriate for all ages.

Homer’s Odyssey, Gwen Cooper, Delacorte Press, 2009
Peter Gethers heart, and mine, when I read about his adventures in Paris (The Cat Who Went To Paris) in Gethers first memoir about Norton. So, of course I had to read the rest of the books about Norton’s adventures abroad (A Cat Abroad) and those brought me inevitably to The Cat Who’ll Live Forever. If you’ve ever loved a cat (which you must have done or you wouldn’t be reading this) you’ve wanted that cat to live forever. The final tale of Norton and Peter’s great friendship will make you smile and make you cry, and you’ll be reminded that your great cat, like any great cat, lives forever in your heart. Homer’s Odyssey, Gwen Cooper, Delacorte Press, 2009 In the foreword to Homer’s Odyssey Gwen Cooper describes how she has composed a dayenu for Homer. (Dayenu is a Hebrew word meaning “it
is enough�) If Homer lived, if he got around by himself, if he could play and do the things a sighted cat can do, it would have been enough for Gwen. Homer did all of those things and more. He inspired Gwen and taught her some t h i n g s about life and love. He gave her joy and wonder and miracles and love, and his story will give the same you.

James Herriot’s Cat Stories, James Herriot, St. Martin’s Press, 1994
James Herriot’s Cat Stories, James Herriot, St. Martin’s Press, 1994 James Herriot was one of the original and one of the best animal chroniclers and his book of cat stories is pure delight. From saving Oscar, the socialite cat, so that Oscar can visit jumble sales and school concerts to Mrs. Bond and her house of cats every tale and tail in James Herriot’s Cat Stories is entertaining and heartwarming. And it is the season to read Herriot’s tale of “Buster, The Feline Retriever,� the best Christmas present Mrs. Ainsworth ever got. Cats and Christmas go together. Cats sleeping under the Christmas tree beat chestnuts roasting on an open fire, and I’d trade Jack Frost nipping at my nose for my cat licking it any day. Any of these books would make a great gift for the cat lover in your life. And don’t forget to put a clowder of cats on your Christmas list.

THE WEIRS TIMES’ HOLIDAY WISHBOOK — Published Thursday, December 4, 2014
LRSO Holiday Pops Concert The Lakes R e g i o n Symphony Orchestra will perform holiday concerts on Saturday December 13 at 7:30pm, and Sunday December 14 at 3pm at the Inter-Lakes High School Community Auditorium in Meredith. Due to the popularity of these Holiday Pops concerts it is advisable to get your tickets early. This season the LRSO is presenting a magnificent holiday musical presentation. The 65 member symphonic orchestra will feature many familiar wonderful holiday favorites such as: “We Wish You A Merry Christmas”, “ It’s Christmas Time”, “Stille Nacht”, and a Holiday sing-along are among the wide mix of Holiday classics sure to captivate both young and not-soyoung. Joining the LRSO for this Holiday extravaganza are both the 15 member
Granite State Handbell Ringers and the 30 member Concord community Chorus. The Granite State Ringers have brought bellringing to a new and amazing height. Each ringer will manage as many as 10 bells at once. This requires a special technique that may mean holding 2 bells in each hand at a time and then switching bells in mid-song. The Ringers approach challenging music with extra enthusiasm which just magnifies the spectacle for the audience. The Ringers will be featured in: “Christmas Bells Overture”, “We Three Kings”, “Come Join Their Song”, “Carol of the Bells”, and
more. The Concord Community Chorus, under the direction of Ben Greene, will perform: “Hallelujah Chorus” by Handel, “Twas The Night Before Christmas”, “White Christmas” plus others with the LRSO orchestra. Tickets are $15 for adults and $8 for children and students through college. Tickets are available for purchase online at www.LRSO.org/tickets, or from our ticket outlets. These outlets include: Innisfree Bookshop and the Mobil station across from the town docks in Meredith; Greenlaw’s Music in Laconia; and Baywater Books in Center Harbor. Any unsold tickets will be available at the door starting one hour before performance time.
