Middletown Teen is Making Her Way in Music

From the first time Elvis Presley appeared on television his “risqué” dance moves and “suggestive” lyrics, older adults responded in abject horror. Same thing when The Beatles debuted on American TV eight years later. Their long shaggy hair and tight pants were just too much for the older folks who thought these “invaders” were destroying popular culture and stomping on the music they loved.

New historic calendar captures Fall River memories

Fall River residents can revisit nearly a century of local memories in the Fall River Scholarship Foundation’s 2027 historic calendar, featuring scenes from Sandy Beach, Main Street, the Braga Bridge and other familiar city locations. The $5 calendar is now on sale at several area businesses, according to a community announcement. Proceeds from calendar sales will fund a scholarship for deserving students next year. James Rogers, editor of the annual calendar, said its 12 photographs highlight Fall River’s history and enduring character over the past 100 years. The cover captures a summer day at Sandy Beach, where hundreds of people are shown swimming and enjoying activities along the waterfront. Another photograph looks back at the huge roller coaster that once stood at Sandy Beach. The calendar also captures two dramatically different winters. One photograph shows cars creeping along Main Street during a raging 1967 snowstorm. Another, from December 1968, shows snow-covered Main Street decorations during the Christmas season. Historic Fall River moments fill the calendar Other photographs capture an April walk over the Braga Bridge, old typewriters once used in classrooms, a smiling young girl strolling a baby carriage and two seniors laughingly “hitchhiking” in front of the downtown senior

Taunton High School students to bring 'Grease' to life

The Taunton High School Drama Club will present the production, according to a community announcement.

The musical features familiar songs and scenes, including "Greased Lightnin'," "Beauty School Dropout," the Rydell Fight Song and the hand jive. Director Justine O'Brien, a former THSDC student, said the show's themes extend beyond its well-known music."Grease at its core is more than just catchy tunes and iconic lines,” O'Brien said. “It showcases the everyday struggles of high school cliques and trying to find the place you belong and people you belong with.” O'Brien said returning to the program as director has special meaning. The director said they feel “blessed to return now and guide students through the same formative arts education that I experienced.” According to the announcement, the drama club gives students opportunities to participate in multiple aspects of theater production, including building sets, performing and developing musical
