Join us for GCC's spring theater performance of Book of Days by Lanford Wilson, directed by Tom Geha. Part comedy, drama and mystery! When murder roars through a small Missouri town in 1998, Ruth Hoch begins her own quest to find truth and honesty amid small town jealousies, religion, greed and lies. This tornado of a play propels you through its events like a page-turning mystery and proves that there are no small roles in life. "An intriguing, prismatic and thoroughly engrossing depiction of contemporary small-town life with a murder mystery at its core... a splendid evening of theater" — Variety "Fascinating… a densely populated, unpredictable little world intriguing characters who touch each other’s lives through an elaborate series of connections… Above all, there’s the language… You could go to the theater night after night and never hear language so supple." — St. Louis Post-Dispatch. $15 general admission, $5 students/seniors. Buy tickets online or cash at the door.

In May, stop by the GPL Local History Room as we celebrate Reverend Lorenzo Langstroth, Greenfield resident and the “Father of Modern Beekeeping”. Langstroth developed the moveable frame beehive, which made it possible to harvest honey and check on the bee's health without destroying the bee hive. When Langstroth wrote his classic book Hive and the Honey-Bee in 1853, he included inspiration from some of the English language’s great poets and playwrights. Langstroth generally quoted a select few lines of poetry or prose, but we have expanded those to show the full context of the material. Think of this as a literary garden, with a Langstroth bee flying among its lines and branches. The self-guided program will be on view in the Local History Room for the month of May.
