Theater for Families

This weekend it's house lights down, stage lights up for the students of South Fork Performing Arts, who will present the plays "Shuddersome: Tales of Poe" and "Peter and the Starcatcher" at LTV Studios in Wainscott.

"Shuddersome" brings to life ghosts and ghouls in what's been described as "a vivid and theatrical adaptation" of some of Edgar Allan Poe's most famous works. Show times are tomorrow at 5 p.m., Saturday at 12:30 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m.
"Peter and the Starcatcher" is based on a 2004 novel by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson, telling the back story of beloved characters from J.M. Barrie's "Peter Pan."

Masks are required of audience members. Tickets to each performance cost $20 and can be bought online at southforkperformingarts.com.
