South Shore Theatre Experience Opens on Wellwood

by

The South Shore Theatre Experience has opened a location at 115 South Wellwood Avenue in Lindenhurst. For more information on shows and tickets, visit the theatre’s website at: http://www.southshoretheatre.com or call (631) 669-0506.

The theatre will be featuring an original show written by Lindenhurst resident Gerry Ferretti:

Bridge the Gap
A World Premiere Musical
by Gerry Ferretti

Nov. 10, 11, 17, 18, 24, 25 at 8pm
Nov. 12 at 3pm
All Tickets $15

Almost 30 years ago, while attending the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, a story was born. Attending a school where so many talented famous people learned their craft, Gerry always wondered – what about the ones who never made it? Where are they now? What happened in their lives that changed the course of their dreams? As a struggling actor, writer, musician Gerry often posed the question – what would have happened if the Beatles broke up when they were 17 and no one ever heard of Paul McCartney? And what if “Unknown Paul” became an accountant but STILL wrote every song he’s ever written. And what if he appeared in a record studio at 50 years old and tried to get his music heard? Would anyone listen? So, drawing on this and from the people and experiences in his life Gerry wrote an outline for BTG. Never satisfied, Gerry completed a dozen re-writes over the next few years but the screenplay sat un-produced in a drawer for almost 6 years! Seeing Bridge The Gap come to life on stage has been a dream come true twice over.

New Vacuum Truck for Department of Public Works

by

Mayor Michael Lavorata is happy to announce that the Village of Lindenhurst has recently purchased a Vacuum Cleaning Truck.  The Vacuum Truck is used by the Lindenhurst Department of Public Works for cleaning storm water drainage lines, drainage basins, and culverts to ensure effective positive water flow.  Mayor Lavorata said, “Storm water vacuum cleaning is a cost effective method of removing the dirt, grit, and other debris that can build up and result in partial or complete interruption of leaching and storm water flow.”   The Vacuum Truck uses high pressure water while simultaneously vacuuming back flushed debris and water from the catch basin or manhole into an enclosed and sealed collection body.  Pictured here at the vacuum truck is (l-r) Department of Public Works employee Frank Gandiosi, Village Administrator Douglas Madlon, and Mayor Michael Lavorata.
