âInto The Woodsâ Ticket Sales

This Weekend

Newtown High School will present Stephen Sondheimâs Into the Woods on stage at the high school auditorium March 15â18.

The NHS production will mark the 20th anniversary of the acclaimed musicalâs Broadway debut. It opened in November 1987 under the direction of James Lapine.

Tickets are currently available for all four performances of this award-winning Broadway musical, loosely based on familiar fairy tales and full of amusing and poignant narratives. Curtain time is 7:30 pm on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, and 2:30 pm on Sunday, March 18.

Individuals and groups can purchase tickets by calling 270-8125 or emailing itwtickets@aol.com. Price is $17 for adults, $15 on Thursday only, and $15 for senior citizens and students, $12 on Thursday. Checks should be made payable to NHS Drama Club.

This yearâs dates are a departure from the customary April schedule for the high school musical, to accommodate the many cast and crew members who also compete in spring-season athletics.

Tickets for this production will be sold at Super Stop & Shop in Sand Hill Plaza on Saturday, March 3, from 11 am to 3 pm.

They will also be sold at Dunkinâ Donuts in Queen Street Shopping Center on Sunday, March 4, between 9 am and noon.

The Voters Chose Newtown

The Plastic Problem

The voters certainly spoke — and I respect the outcome — but let’s not forget that a “majority” doesn’t mean everyone agreed. Many of us are deeply concerned about the rising cost of living here. Supporting schools and services is important, but so is ensuring that residents can afford to stay in the town they love. We all want Newtown to be a great place to live, but lately, it’s starting to feel less like “Nicer in Newtown” and more like “More Expensive in Newtown.” That’s not sustainable, and it’s not a criticism of the town itself — it’s a call for responsible budgeting and long-term planning that doesn’t rely on tax increases year after year. I hope future decisions will reflect not just the desire to maintain services, but also the need to ease the financial burden on residents.

Budget, Capital Projects Pass: Officials Respond

I appreciate the passion behind this message, and I absolutely understand the desire to invest in our town. That said, I voted no — not because I don't care about Newtown, but because I do. Fiscal responsibility is not about ignoring problems, it’s about making sure we address them in a sustainable and transparent way. It’s frustrating to feel like every year there’s a new “urgent” reason to raise taxes, with little serious effort to curb spending or prioritize needs. I worry this just sets the stage for another round of increases next year. That doesn't mean I’m against education, safety, or our town’s future — it means I believe in accountability and in asking tough questions about how our money is managed. Voting no wasn't a rejection of Newtown — it was a call for more thoughtful, balanced leadership. I hope future conversations can include all perspectives, not just those willing to write a bigger check.

The voters spoke, loud and clear that they support our schools and municipal services. The majority vote was a mandate to keep delivering well rated education services and keep it" Nicer in Newtown."

Great effort by the those who attended to shine a light on the attacks on Democracy. Thanks for the article so all can understand whats happening.

Hundreds Attend ‘Rock This Democracy’ Rally

Thank you LeReine, for speaking out about this. The list of public servants who are unfairly targeted for abuse just for doing their jobs has been growing. It is a testament to the power of propaganda that otherwise good and well-meaning people can get so emotional as to act out in this way.
