January 24 & 25, 2009, West Boylston Middle/High School Auditorium, The Complete History of America (Abridged).

In the spirit of the Marx Brothers and Looney Tunes, with a dose of Saturday Night Live, the West Boylston Theater Foundation delivered an outrageous performance of The Complete History of America (Abridged).  Their youthful camaraderie was evident. It was apparent to all who saw their show that this band of very talented, young merrymakers truly enjoys hearing an audience roar with laughter. Who knows, you may well see one of these guys on SNL in a few years.

Even more importantly, all their hours of practice paid off, raising $1,958, to support the West Boylston schools’ arts and music programs. The WBAF thanks Jared Fancy, Jake Sanders, Connor Sampson, Matt Stoychoff, Emily Stark, Tom Canavan, and Lisa Sanders for their dedication and generosity. We hope to see more of the West Boylston Theater Foundation in the coming months (before they head off to college). Stay tuned.
