Tour of the Wang Theater - ZOOM-June 17th at 6pm "A Night at the Theatre" - Experience the beauty and wonder of the historic Wang Theatre live in your home through our Virtual Tour!

Go behind the scenes of one of Boston's most prominent landmarks! Guests will go behind the scenes and see hallways walked by entertainers like Bruce Springsteen, Ella Fitzgerald, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Queen, Elton John, Lady Gaga, Liza Minnelli and more! This is not a prerecorded video; each tour is led by a trained guide that will take viewers through the building and backstage and answer questions about its unique history; from its roots as a hotel and glamorous days as a movie "cathedral", to today's role as an impressive venue for performances and events. Please register for this zoom event by emailing adoggett@franklinma.gov

Marie LeBlanc, owner of Transitions Liquidation Services, will talk frankly and sincerely about her experiences helping seniors and their loved  ones ease the stress of decluttering, downsizing, and transitioning,  especially during this challenging time dealing with COVID-19. From  organizing household and personal belongings to reducing the emotions of  transitioning to a new home, Marie's company has guided over 1,500  successful moves.
