A special partnership recently formed between Sara and John Berkeley, new owners of the Boothbay Playhouse, and the Boothbay Region Health Center. The Berkeleys are patients of the healthcare center and realize the important role it plays in helping our region provide professional and affordable healthcare to all. From this partnership came the creation of the Fall Starlight Music Series to benefit the health center and its programs. Mine Oyster and the Boothbay Playhouse will offer libations and edibles for purchase during each concert. Tickets for the Series may be purchased at the BRHC, Hawke Motors and online at Eventbrite.com 

 

School Street Band - Saturday, Nov. 4: 6-9 p.m.  Tickets: $30-advance, $35-door. The band has played throughout the state of Maine for the past 26 years. Blending a mixture of classic rock, pop rock, rhythm and blues, as well as country, the band has been able to provide diverse audiences with entertaining music for their dancing and listening pleasure. Bring your dancing shoes! 

 

Dani Tribesmen Reggae Band - Saturday, Nov. 18: 6-9 p.m. Tickets: $20/advance - $25/door.  Local favorites, Dave and Chris Gagne are members of this infectious group that will keep you moving in your seat or on the dance floor. Dani Tribesmen have been playing for audiences all over the state of Maine since 1985 and their reggae cruise is always a "must do" in the harbor every summer. It's Island time! 

 

Boogie 2 Shooz - Friday, Dec. 8: 6-9 p.m. Tickets: $20/advance $25/door. This high energy duo - Patti-Jean Cousens and Pamela Jenkins - can rock the house or sweep you off your feet with a sweet love ballad.  Their unique and expressive vocal styles combine to bring torch ballads, soulful renditions of the blues, funk-flavored R&B lush jazz and spirited Latin to every performance. 

 

Tito’s vodka custom electric guitar raffle! Tito's Vodka has generously donated a custom electric guitar to raffle off in support of the Boothbay Region Health Center. The guitar will be on display throughout the Fall Starlight Music Series at the Playhouse. The guitar will be signed by each performer in the Series. The winner will be announced on Friday, Dec. 8. Raffle tickets are $10 each and can be purchased at each performance. 

 

The Fall Starlight Music Series benefits the entire region but collectively, it introduces the community to the newly renovated Boothbay Playhouse, helps support the Health Center and its programs, local musicians and hospitality participants. 

 

Without the generosity and support of business and community members, this series would not be possible. Very special thanks go to: J. Edward Knight, First Federal Savings Bank, Tito's Vodka, the Boothbay Playhouse, Mine Oyster, Ports of Italy, The First, Ports Pizzeria, Orne's Candy Store, Hawke Motors, BCC, Cunningham Farms, Anthony Krason, Dianne and Mark Gimbel, and Bill Royall.
