Valley Advocate Touts TF Nightlife -- and the New Shea

"...we’re optimistic about the future of live music and performance on Avenue A."

In a recent Halos & Horns edition, the Valley Advocate highlighted the burgeoning nightlife in Turners Falls, with a special nod to the new Shea:

“...with WRSI radio host Monte Belmonte taking over the Shea Theater, with a fiscal assist from the Northampton Center for the Arts, we’re optimistic about the future of live music and performance on Avenue A. If you haven’t been to Turners in a while, check it out again. This time, bring a big appetite — and a posse ready to bar crawl.”

Exciting News for A Happening V: The Bestiary

Cloudgaze and Eggtooth Productions are thrilled to announce that we have received generous grants from the Mass Cultural Council as well as the Community Foundation of Western MA to support our 2025 Immersive Arts Festival, “A Happening V: The Bestiary.”

This festival will transform the Shea Theater into an exploration of theme, hosting installations, music, theatrical performances, and movement pieces, featuring the collective contributions of over 50 local artists. Audiences will experience otherworldly environments and narratives inspired by Aesop's Fables, George Orwell's Animal Farm, newly imagined cautionary tales, and creature myths of all origins.

Thanks to the Mass Cultural Council for their vital support this year.We'd also like to thank the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts for their support in the form of a Flexible Funding grant. We couldn't do this work without you!
