Discover the Joy of Laughter and Community Spirit in Hull

This March, Hull, Massachusetts, is set to delight residents with an array of uplifting events that promise joy, laughter, and community connection.

Theatrical Joy: "The Odd Couple" Hits the Stage

One of the highlights is Ture Repertory Theatre's production of Neil Simon's classic comedy "The Odd Couple." Scheduled for performances from March 6 to 15 at the Beal House, the play showcases Hull's own Mark Reed in the iconic role of Oscar Madison. The production, now in its 25th anniversary season, brings light-hearted entertainment through the humorous antics of mismatched roommates Felix Unger and Oscar. Artistic Director Donald Sheehan emphasizes the importance of laughter, stating, "Sometimes theatre provides an escape for its audience, and 'The Odd Couple' is the perfect retreat," inviting everyone to experience the joy of the arts.

Celebrating Academic Excellence

The community also celebrates educational achievements, as Merrimack College recently recognized outstanding students, including nursing major Fallon Ryan, for her exceptional performance by placing her on the Dean’s List. Additionally, the University of Rhode Island honored several local students for their academic excellence, further inspiring young minds in the region.

Community Initiatives: Sewing for a Cause

Another exciting event will feature Jean Liben at the Nantasket-Hull Rotary Club on March 4. Liben will share her journey of transforming a simple sewing hobby into a meaningful project, creating dresses for underprivileged children across various countries. With her children's book, "Village Dresses," being recognized in the Library of Congress, Liben's work exemplifies the spirit of giving and community support.

Winter Tradition: The Hull Lifesaving Museum's Snow Row
